Overview

Walk from Arundel along the river Arun to the churches of South and North Stoke then into Arundel park to Swanbourne Lake. From there we will goup over the park past the Folly and into Arundel to visit the cathedral and St Nicholas Church.  Then walk down the hill through Arundel back to the cars. 

Picnic Yes 

Dogs welcome

There are stiles, mud, undulating terraine and at least one steep ascent and descent. I would advise poles if you have them.  

There will be time to visit the Nativity scenes  in all four churches. There are numerous cafes and pubs to visit in Arundel.
