- Dog Notes:
The open downland at Cheesefoot Head in Hampshire is a fantastic place for dog walking, offering vast open spaces for dogs to run. However, be mindful of grazing livestock (often sheep) and ensure dogs are kept on leads or under very close control when animals are present. During ground-nesting bird season (spring/summer), keep dogs to paths. The area is popular with other walkers and sometimes for events, so good control is important. Bring water, as there are no natural sources on the downs for your dog on this Hampshire walk.
