Come along and join us on a Woodland Walk around Minsted and Bepton. We will meet at 9.45am to start promptly at 10.00am so and take on a relaxing 2.9 mile walk from Bepton (The Stable Coffee Bar at Bepton), through the woods to Minsted, heading back through Midhurst Common and back to the starting point.

A mixture of woodland (possibly muddy) paths, a little roadway walking, walking through farmland with possible sightings of chickens, goats, a shepherds hut, horse and beautiful woodland trees.

Dogs on leads are welcome, £1 donation towards our charity of the month. Mixed terrains and please note it can get sometimes very muddy and wet in places, and this walk does have some uneven ground especially after rain so always a good idea to have good walking boots/shoes and waterproof socks.

Refreshments available from The Stable Cafe on our return, unfortunately no toilets on this route (other than a wild wee). Nearest bus stop would be at the Bepton Corner coming into Midhurst, walking towards the Country Inn pub (around 10 mins walk).

Look forward to seeing you there

Please arrive around 11.30am for a starting walk at 11.45am. We will be having a walk prior to this walk starting at 10.00am which you are more than welcome to join as well making in total a 6 mile route.

Starting with our first 3.12 miles walk (approx) takes us on a more hillier route takinig on part of the Monarchs Way. Meeting at 9.45am at The Selsey Arms, West Dean for a 10.00am prompt start we will cross over the main road taking us up towards Warren Hanger, where we then head back past Lodge Hill Farmhouse, across the fielded footpath coming back on ourselves heading back to the starting point through the bridge and over the road once again. A combination of pathways, tracks and fields taking us on a loop with some steeper inclines and unsteady grounds in places. Can be wet and muddy after rain.

This route is slighter harder than the 2nd walk which is a much flatter route, this one may get your heart pumping a little more and the terrain is very different from the first more pathed route.

Again facilities and refreshments available at the starting point, car parking available and also a bus stop outside the Selsey Arms.

Dogs on leads are welcome, £1 donation towards our charity of the month.

Please note as per the previous walks, on part 2 of the walk it is following on from part 1, so if you are joining us only for the second part and we are slightly delayed, we are on our way just the 1st part has taken slightly longer than planned so please wait and you can always call me on 07576 112199 to find out where we are.

Meeting at 11.30am for a 11.45am start. A beautiful flatter 2.73 mile walk (approx.) along part of the Centurion Way and part hills viewing the River Lavant. Meeting at the Selsey Arms, West Dean, we will make our way past the West Dean stores, up a slight incline along the track, past the horses and into the bottom of the hills where we may come across sheep in the fields, crossing over a bridge taking us onto the Centurion Way where we will head back towards the beginning viewing the River Lavant, crossing the road and back to the starting point.

After rain this route can be a little muddy and unsteady for the first part, then once on the Centurion Way it is all flat footpaths.

A mixture of beautiful hill views and river views, with hopefully lots of birds singing, and sheep and horses enroute. Dogs on lead welcome.

Approx. 2.73 miles long, taking approx. 1 – 1.5 hours and refreshments and facilities available back at the beginning at The Selsey Arms. Parking is available at the pub car park. A bus stop is outside the Selsey Arms for anyone travelling by public transport

We will meet at 9.45am for 10am start for a circular walk from The Welldiggers Arms on the outskirts of Petworth in West Sussex. The walking route explores local stretches of woodland and commons, we will visit a pretty church and stunning viewpoint along the way, following peaceful paths that provide a true feeling of escape.

The woodland commons are open access with lots of intersecting paths. The walk includes several climbs and descents throughout, including a couple of short but steep sections.

Several stretches (particularly the bridleway at the beginning and end) can be very muddy after periods of rain and in winter, so good boots are a must, and wellingtons are recommended at wetter times of year.

You will need to negotiate several kissing gates and staggered barriers plus one stile (which has a large gap alongside for dogs).

There is no livestock on the route, just the outside chance of sharing one field with a horse, but it’s still a good idea to bring a lead for your dog. There are three road crossings that need care, but these are either within speed restriction areas or have excellent visibility.

This route is approx. 9km and will take about 3 hours. There will be an option to stop at Fittleworth Village stores halfway around for refreshments and toilets.

Meeting at 9.45am for a 10am start at the Woolbeding Car Park (just off the A272) Woolbeding turning we will enjoy a Rother River 2.82 mile walk. You are more than welcome to walk parts 1 and 2, or simply join 1 or 2.

We will start by walking up the gradual hill of Woolbeding Parkland viewing the Woolbeding Glasshouse in the distance.

Walking on the Rother Walk we will continue to walk through the woods down the other side of the hill where you can view the Folly in the distance. Sometimes we are lucky to view the cattle grazing in the parkland fields.

Continuing along the river walk, we will head over a long wooden boardwalk walking then along the paths around the often muddy paths along the side of the river where you can enjoy the views of the reeds, rushes, trees and wildlife.

This area can be muddy and slippery underfoot and if there has been very heavy rain then there is a possibility that this will be flooded and a slightly different route will be taken.

We will then take a turn right at the end of the route, heading back in a loop heading past the back of the Midhurst Rother College, back into fields viewing Whiphill Woods and the mast continuing on the footpaths around the edge of the fields, past the Half Moon Covert and back onto the Woolbeding Parkland back to the car park.

This route again has no facilities or refreshments but once completed a short journey back to The Half Moon Pub offers a range of food and drink and facilities. £1 donation per walk towards the charity of the month and dogs welcome on leads.

The nearest bus stop would be at the Esso Garage enroute 60 and then you would need to walk up Petersfield Road to Woolbeding Car Park which is approx a 10 – 20 minute walk depending on speed

Meeting at 11.30am for a 11.45am start, Starting at the Woolbeding Car Park, just off the A272 (turning right at the Woolbeding Junction and right again into the car park) we will walk across to Woolbeding Bridge, crossing the road up onto a field taking us through a wooded area, over a wooden bridge onto a footpath taking us through to Stedham Village.

We will then walk past the church taking us down to the stunning Stedham Mill across a footpath and bridge alongside the river, through a field continuing around the river where we may get a chance of seeing the heron, wild deer in the fields, cattle and horses on route.

Heading back to the Woolbeding bridge before heading back to the car park, this 5.10km walk is a relaxed, reasonably flat walk. There are just 20 steps from the bridge to get onto the field which can be slightly steep, and the footpaths after rain can be slightly muddy as we go through the field on the way back from Stedham Mill, so good walking boots / waterproof socks are recommended.

Ground can be a bit uneven in places. £1 donation towards the charity of the month. No facilities or refreshments stops on route so please bear this in mind. Dogs on lead are welcome.
