About this walk

This lovely walk takes you along the shoreline at the top of Portsmouth’s harbour, round the castle and can be finished with a drink in The Cormorant Pub (dog friendly).
Over 9 acres of grass areas, as well as woody areas, a children’s park, and the shore, perfect for those dogs who love to swim! Portchester Castle is also an English Heritage site, you can visit the castle grounds but dogs must be on leads within this area. St Mary’s Church within the castle grounds also has dog friendly tea rooms.
