Overview

From Horsham the route follows the High Weald Landscape Trail through St Leonards Forest and then through open countryside with a number of significant hills offering good views of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).  Lunch will be on the village green in the beautiful historic village of Slaugham. Please bring a picnic. The afternoon walk is less strenuous going through fields and light woodland via the village of Cuckfield with views over the South Downs as we approach Haywards Heath. 

Recommended train: either the 9.00 from London Bridge, arriving Horsham at 10.10 or the 9.05 from Victoria, arriving 9.57. Please check rail timetable in case of changes.
