We are the West London Ramblers, mainly covering Ealing and Hounslow, but open to all. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This walk is through very beautiful countryside. It is mainly National Trust land - mixed woods with blackberries and bluebells and heathlands of bracken, gorse, heather and bilberry, with fine views from Black Down (280 metres/919 feet), the highest point in both Sussex and the South Downs National Park.
The lunchtime stop will be on the village green at Fernhurst. The Red Lion pub is available for drinks or snacks. Please bring a packed lunch. This is also the only drop-out point, with an hourly bus back to Haslemere.
Some of the bridleways can be muddy, even in dry weather, so please wear appropriate footwear.
This walk will be closely based on the Saturday Walkers Club route of the same name (see link).
From Waterloo, please take either: the 09:45 train to Haslemere (Clapham Junction 09:52) arriving Haslemere at 10:49 or: the 10:00 train to Portsmouth Harbour arriving Haslemere at 10:54. Toilets are available at Haslemere station.
Meet just outside the barriers.
