Portsdown Hill Viewpoint (Mick’s)

Walk With Viewpoint · Portsmouth , Hampshire · PO6 3LZ

Panoramic Solent views from lay-by car parks along the ridge.

A classic quick-stop viewpoint over Portsmouth, the Solent and the Isle of Wight. Short paths run along the ridge; longer chalk tracks head west towards Fort Widley. Large car park area near the burger van; exposed in windy weather and can be busy at sunset.

💡 Best for golden-hour views. Limited shelter on the ridge; bring layers.
