A circular route past a pub, through Tide Mill and across to Goatee Beach for epic views over Southampton Water. Visit Eling church en route

Step 1: Start this accessible route at the picnic area located next to the Toll Bridge Booth. Did you know it is Hampshire’s last medieval toll!

Step 2: There’s a paved path just beyond the picnic area with incredible views across the millpond.

Step 3: Because of the tides, the level in the millpond is always changing. It never gets empty because a river flows into it.

Step 4: It’s a freshwater feed from Bartley Water. Admire the views and stick to the path.

Step 5: Can you see a small island in the millpond? Every year swans nest here, can you spot any swans today?

Step 6: There is a small wooden bridge coming up on the left.
