Overview

Starting from the Castle car park we walk through Arundel centre and up to Horne Tower. Then following the path of the Gallops gently climbing to the War Dyke - stunning views on a clear day and a great place to take a break. Returning along a parallel path back to Horne Tower before briefly joining the Monarch’s Way then around the edge of Swanbourne Lake.
