Chairman Mao himself said it: every journey starts with a single step. So here goes for Leg Seven, by foot from here (Liss Railway Station) to Liphook Railway Station
Action Stations Leg 7

Well, this is where it all started: I was working at Liss but my car was at Liphook. I said I was going to walk it - it was a beautiful summer's day. Foolishly, I then said it would be possible to walk from Portsmouth Harbour to London Waterloo; and now I am having to prove it. So from Liss Railway Station I headed towards Liss Forest, picked up the Shipwrights Way and meandered towards Liphook, also taking in stretches of the Serpentine Way and the Sussex Border Path, eventually getting to Liphook by mid afternoon.
