| Description |
Leader: Richard & Sue
Ascent 426m / 1400 ft. A part of the walk is on uneven ground, so sensible shoes required. Dogs are welcome, if they are calm with livestock. Dogs will need to be on a lead for the duration of the walk. Please bring poo bags. We will initially cross over the road, to start our walk through the open fields that will lead onto a forest walk. We will then walk through the forest of West Dean, which includes some uphill and downhill walking. Please note, if the weather has been wet, parts of this route may be muddy. We will then return back to West Dean woods, to walk through a farm, back towards West Dean Gardens. At this point we will cross the main road, to walk past the church and back to our start point. There are no stiles, cows or horses on this route.
Meet: We start at West Dean by the river under the black lamp post with the sign for the village shop. However, for those who wish to stay for a drink afterwards, the Selsey Arms have agreed patrons from the walk can use their car parking facilities. Just park there and walk down to the lamp post meeting / start place. Post code: PO18 OQX. What3words: shifting.polygraph.recline
By bus: 60 runs twice an hour along this route.
For those not parking at the pub, as you approach the Selsey Arms, there is a road going down the side of the pub, which will pass a farm shop. Follow the road for 250 yards, then follow to the right and directly in front there should be parking bays. If full, there is off street parking further up the road. At the end of the walk you are welcome to join us for some refreshments, at the Selsey Arms Pub.
