Walking the Test Way
Walking the Test Way with a dog.
The Test Way is a 44 mile long distance walking trail from Inkpen to Southampton Water. The Test Way roughly follows the river Test which is a world famous chalk stream. The route passes through picturesque villages. So many beautiful churches! So many thatched cottages! Diverse landscape of urban streets, water meadows, riverside, woodlands, common land. The path goes past Mottisfont house and gardens. Perfect for a cup of tea!
I walked from Eling tidal mill in Southampton to inkpen. Splitting the walk into 4 sections
Day 1. Eling tidal mill to Romsey.
Staying at the dog friendly Duke on the Test.
Day 2. Romsey to Stockbridge.
Staying at the dog friendly White Hart.
Day 3. Stockbridge to St. Marybourne.
Staying at the slightly less friendly Bourne Vally Inn.
Day 4. St Marybourne to Inkpen and the end
Pictured above is Chilbolton Cow Common one of my favourite spots on the walk.
