Cocking Hill & West Dean Woods Circular 5km Walk Thursday 1st October 10am

Meeting at 9.45am at Cocking Hill Car Park for a 10am start we will be climbing steeply to reach the South Downs Way and then follows this ridge-top path west to perform part of the Westdean Woods before returning down the ridge and along old farm tracks. There are beautiful views across the surrounding hills throughout the walk and plenty of wildlife within the woodland which is a mixture of majestic pines and coppiced hazel.

The route consists of long steady ascents and descents throughout, a couple of sections being fairly steep. Please note that this path way as most of the South Downs way is chalky and flinty so please be careful on the paths and note when it has been raining these paths can get slippery so good footwear is advised. Refreshments and facilities available at the beginning and end of route at Cadence Café. (approx. 3 miles 5km)

As before you are responsible for your own health and safety. £1 per walk donation towards the charity of the month.
