A undulating walk with lovely views starting from Upham, passing through Longwood Estate, the Preshaws and Stephens Castle Down, using parts of the Allen King Way, South Downs Way and Monarch's Way. Hopefully we will be cheered by some early snowdrops.
There are 5 stiles and inevitably some mud. Quite a bit of easy walking on country lanes. The route is undulating with 2 steep grassy descents and one chalky, for which poles might be useful if you use them.
Please bring a picnic lunch and drinks and snacks as required.
Please let the leader know you are coming as we will set off once all known walkers have arrived.
