With a perfect location of being both right on the coast and at the edge of the South Downs National Park, Portsmouth and its surrounding towns have a whole host of fantastic walks to enjoy this summer.
Here are just some of our favourites:

17. Emsworth Mill Pond
The Mill Pond at Emsworth is the perfect place for a little summer stroll, complete with scenic views, ducks and swans and of course right next to a smattering of fantastic cafes for those wanting a drink and a slice of cake (or even an ice-cream). And if you fancy a longer stroll you can always go along the coastline as well.Picture by Roger Sandford Photo: -

18. Stansted Park
Whether you are looking for a short stroll or a longer woodland walk then Stansted Park as it all. The main grounds near to the house and the garden centre have lots of little areas to explore - perfect for little legs. But if you fancy a longer walk then the park has a number of paths which lead straight into the South Downs National Park woodland which are just stunning.Picture by Charlie Hellewell Photo: Charlie Hellewell
