A pretty walk in the High Weald AONB though potentially very muddy in spots. Pub stop at lunchtime for drinks only. Pub at end. Bring a packed lunch.
Terrain: Hills and woods
Travel: Take 9:56 from London St Pancras International (10:06 London Blackfriars, 10:37 East Croydon), arr. Balcombe 11:06.
Buy return to Balcombe. A single from East Grinstead to East Croydon is required for the return journey.
NB The morning's Thameslink train goes via Blackfriars rather than the usual London Bridge. The 10:12 from London Bridge connects at East Croydon.
