Route Details
H2H 09 - Petersfield To Rowlands Castle
At 12 miles, this is the longest section of the Guildford to Portsmouth trail. Train is the only public transport option in the area. To break the walk into shorter sections you could aim to finish at one of the pubs near the route and book a taxi back to a station.
Several parts of the route cross open hillsides so take care to wrap up well in winter and take plenty of water, a hat, and sun protection in summer. There are hardly any places to top up with water. The first 3 miles are through farmland which becomes muddy after rain. The remainder of the route climbs onto better drained land and follows tracks or made up roads.
On leaving Petersfield the route follows the Hangers Way as far as Buriton:

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
