The rules around Eastleigh

In England you may walk on public rights of way, on open access land under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act, and in woodland the Forestry Commission opens to the public. We hold all three for Hampshire, and a walk that leaves them is refused before you ever see it.

We have read the dog orders of every council in Hampshire, and a walk here tells you when it crosses a place an order names.

We checked Hampshire for military live-firing ground and hold 8 areas of it: Tidworth Ranges, Bulford Ranges, Woolmer Ranges, Longmoor Ranges, Moody's Down Range, Chilcomb Range, Browndown and Chilcomb Range. A walk is checked against them before we show it.
