Overview

A steep ascent through Earl's Hill Nature Reserve brings us to the summit at 320m for 360' views.

After an equally steep descent we pass through Habberley village and make our way up through Eastridge Wood to Maddox's Coppice.

We revisit Habberley on the return, and a final section through Oak's wood brings us back to the car park.
