West Sussex 40 Walks & County Walks

Author: Ben Giles

From the city of Chichester with its ancient walls and harbour inlets standing sentinel over the English Channel to the northern heights of Black Down on its ridge of greensand above the folds, farms, and villages of the western Weald, West Sussex has a wealth of history and fine countryside to discover. The bustling towns of Crawley and Horsham in the lee of the chalky South Downs and the traditional seaside resorts of Littlehampton and Worthing make great bases for walkers.

The 40 circular walks in this pocket guidebook offer plenty of scope to explore the region's famed downs, woods, heaths, and nature reserves along with its charming villages, fine stately homes and verdant country estates. Each walk entry begins with at-a-glance details of distance, time, terrain, parking, and public transport access where available. Clear route-finding instructions are provided together with simple overview coloured sketch maps, but OS Explorer map sheet numbers are also provided. The text also includes brief notes on features of interest along the way and there are colour photographs throughout.

The walks are arranged into five geographical sections:
Around Midhurst
Around Chichester
Billinghurst and the Low Weald
Around Arundel and Worthing
Crawley, Horsham and Haywards Heath
