We are the High Weald Walkers Group. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A moderate undulating walk with a total ascent of approximately 1130’. Heading SW out of West Hoathly on the HWLT we make our way to Ardingly and our first stop at the Recreation Ground. From there we descend to the path adjacent to Ardingly reservoir which we follow to Balcombe and our lunch stop overlooking the lake, 7 miles completed. Re-fuelled we walk in a general NE direction eventually turning E to return to our start at West Hoathly.
Some quiet lane walking and the B2028 to cross twice. A little mud (of course) on the day of the recce (11/6) but this tended to be short and sharp. Very few stiles and paths quite overgrown in places. Poles recommended.
Bring your own drinks and picnic.
