Nice route easily accessible from Romsey railway station. Would have been difficult to follow from the description alone - we used the GPX. Route is mostly off road through woodland and past fields. Also very quiet country roads. Trails were mostly very stoney, so lots of vibration and bumps with a hardtail - perhaps a little too much for a relaxing ride, but fun to navigate - even more so with suspension! | ||
