Overview

This is a mixed woodland and Downland walk. We start through Sailor's Copse and Poling Copse, then we climb Warningcamp Hill, down to Wepham and the edge of Burpham before a steady climb up past Burpham High Barn, round to Wepham Down and Burpham Hill. We descend back into the woods via Upper Oldfield Copse and return to the start through Angmering Park.

The Dover Car Park, this can only be accessed from the westbound carriageway of the A27 so when approaching from Brighton continue to Poling Corner, where you can do a U-turn to reach the bottom of Dover Lane. Pass Chestnut Tree House and continue to the woodland car park at the end.
