Overview

We will start our walk by ascending the hill behind the church, then continue up onto The South Downs Way, before returning through woodland and farmland back down to village at the end of the walk.  This will be a bracing walk on chalk down uplands with fantastic, far-reaching views. There will be a number of steep ascents on the walk.
