On leaving the car park we will cross a vineyard before beginning our ascent following The Windmill Trail to Halnaker Windmill which offers fabulous views on a clear day. After taking in the views we descend by the same route before branching to the north east following a path bordering farmland.
We will ascend Long Down offering further views east over the village of Eartham and back towards Halnaker Windmill.
Descending Long Down we return to our starting point following footpaths through wooded areas, bridleways and a short section of country lane.
Picnic on route
200 yd stretch across a ripening field of rape seed which is hanging across the footpath. It is a little scratchy so long sleeves and trousers should be considered.
Boxgrove and Halnaker served by No 55 bus. Also Littlehampton - Chichester (no 500) stops in nearby Tangmere which is about 0.6 miles from the walk starting point. Contact the walk leader if you would like further information.
Dogs on lead as possible farm animals present and requirement across vineyard.
Free car park, turn right as you enter and drive to far end.
