Walking & Cycling Breaks
​

South Downs Eco Lodge and Camping makes the perfect base for families, groups or individuals to explore the Hampshire South Downs!

You have en-suite bed and breakfast rooms, shared hostel accommodation or camping options to choose from. Why not stay for a few days to explore the area?  
​

There are many beautiful walks and cycles to do from our doorstep - plenty to keep you busy for a few days or even a week. We are ideally situated right on the South Downs National Trail, which means we get a  lot of walkers and cyclists stopping overnight as they enjoy the 6-day trail.

There are many others beautiful walks and cycle trails, of varying distances and grades, to suit all ages and abilities.
  • Shipwrights Way - Walk along the South Downs Way to Queen Elizabeth Country Park where you can pick up the new Shipwrights Way
  • Wayfarers Way - in the other direction, at Droxford, you can join up with the Wayfarers Way
  • Hangers Way - From Petersfield you can walk the stunning Hangars Way
  • Mountain Bike Trails - A short cycle away is Queen Elizabeth Country Park where they have a Novice and an Advanced Mountain Bike Trail. 

Routes & Maps

Walk and Cycle.co.uk is a great website that can help you plan your itinerary. They have detailed maps and information on walk/ cycle routes straight from our doorstep, including information on level of difficulty and distances.
