Three Downs Link

This is a walking, cycling and horse riding route from the North Wessex Downs National Landscape.

This path follows bridleways through Hampshire, Berkshire, Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.

The trail runs from Exton, in Hampshire, to Dean Hill, near Hungerford. You will pass through open chalk downland, along rivers and canals and through some pretty villages.

The route passes through or near Basingstoke, New Arlesford, Malborough, Winchester, Newbury and Hungerford. It uses the South Downs Way National Trail for part of the route and also links with the Ridgeway National Trail. It is waymarked with a light blue arrow.
For cyclists a mountain bike is advisable as most of the route takes place on off road tracks.
