The Clarendon Way

This is a series of circular walks, each of which covers part of the Clarendon Way from Winchester to Salisbury Cathedral. Many of these walks touch on other long-distance paths, such as the Itchen Way, Test Way, Monarch's Way, etc. Within each walk, there are a series of geocaches.

Each walk will published as a set; it may be several months before all the walks are published.

I have used Mapyx Quo to plan and document these walks. This is free mapping software (you pay for the maps, but you can buy them a "tile" at a time). I have been using it for about a week at the time of writing, and think it's wonderful! At the time of writing I have no connection with the company, although I hope to become an affiliate.

I will publish all the details of the walks as Quo "projects", so that you can download all the walks, and all the geocaches.

Each walk will also be published as a GPX file that you can download to your GPS or other mapping software, and as a KML file so that you can see the route on Google Earth.

Downloadable Files

Each route has a route card that shows the summary of the route (distance, height, etc), a route profile (picture of the ups and downs), and a list of the waypoints.

In addition to the circular walks, there are three long walks:
