We are the Arun-Adur Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

An (almost) Figure of Eight walk around the (almost) perimeter of Petworth Park and Upperton Common. The walk is undulating throughout. There will be a small amount of walking on quiet roads as we walk through the village of Upperton otherwise it's tracks, footpaths and bridleways. There will be one break in a shady area on the common. There are no toilet facilities at the start of the walk but there is a portaloo available in the vineyard which we will walk through. There is a van selling refreshments at the start/finish of the walk. Dogs are welcome but will need to be on leads in Petworth Park when we are near the deer.
Pay and Display parking - free for National Trust members.
There are a number of options to leave the walk early: as we return to the Petworth via the Uppercross Gate, you could return directly to the car park thereby shortening the walk by about 1.5 miles; you could leave at Cow Barn Gate if you wished to walk into the town of Petworth; you could go into the house (NT, currently has a Turner exhibition to mark 250 years since his birth).
