Petersfield to Liss T=2.11
"Much of this walk follows the Hangers Way, a long distance path which lies within an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Much of the walk is in unspoilt countryside which remains as it was several hundred years ago. The very steep ascent of Shoulder of Mutton Hill can be avoided by taking a slightly longer alternative route. Whichever route is taken the view at the top is spectacular."
Length: 16.6km (10.3 miles) Toughness: 5/10
Trains: Get the 1000 Portsmouth Harbour Train from Waterloo arriving Petersfield 1105 (Woking 1025). Direct return trains are 1628, 1728. 1828 2028. Changing at Petersfield at 1849.
Get a return to Petersfield. There are some advance tickets available.

Tea: The suggested tea stop is Wine Bar & Coffee House at 41-43 Station Road open to 5pm. An alternative is the Whistle Stop pub at the bottom of Hill Brow Road, 150m past the station.

Apparently the pub is closed for annual leave
Hawkley Inn on Twitter
“For your information, we will be closed 19th - 27th September for our annual break but we will look forward to welcoming you back on our return.”
Accounts vary but my sources say up to #16 were on this walk in #sunny-weather-with-some-clouds. "Great day out, vintage SWC"
