About

The Devil's Punch Bowl belongs near the top because family lists should still feature the area's signature outdoor experience when it is this accessible and rewarding. National Trust information highlights a visitor map, café and waymarked routes, which helps make it manageable for family use rather than just a serious hiking destination.\n\nFor school holidays, weekend walks and energetic children, it is one of the best-value family days out near Haslemere.
