Overview

Starting in the famous Sussex village,East Hoathly,( it isn’t east of anywhere ) certainly not of West Hoathly.

There are no hills on this loop,just green pastures, pinewood’s and last phase of the walk is made a sheer breeze thanks to a 2km straight country highway. 8 stiles but none are difficult.

Meet outside the Kings Head pub. Plenty of roadside parking in the village.
