Embark on an easy 3.3-mile (5.2 km) hike around Hascombe Hill, gaining 449 feet (137 metres) of elevation over approximately 1 hour and 31 minutes. This picturesque loop takes you through diverse landscapes of wooded hillsides, heathland, and parts of the Greensand Ridge. You will enjoy beautiful views of the Surrey countryside, with higher points offering expansive vistas towards the Sussex border, and pass by the quaint Hascombe village pond and the impressive St Peter's Church.
This trail is largely considered an easy hike, suitable for most fitness levels. The White Horse Pub often serves as the starting and ending point, providing a convenient spot for refreshments after your walk. While paths are typically wide and easy to follow, be aware that some sections include steeper ascents and descents. Unsurfaced bridleways and forest paths can become muddy, especially during winter months, so plan your footwear accordingly.
Discover the rich history and unique features along the way, including Hascombe Hill, an ancient Iron Age hillfort and former 19th-century naval telegraph station. You will also encounter the modern Dragonstones Stone Circle, constructed by the Megalithic Order of Druids, which features 18 stones aligned with solar and lunar events. The route also connects with the long-distance Greensand Way, offering options for further exploration.
