We are the South West Sussex Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This is an easy figure of eight walk starting and finishing at the excellent Star & Garter in East Dean.
We start by going southwards up on to East Dean hill, with some wonderful views across the Downs. We then return downwaards thru some well established woodland, and back to the pub. Then its through the churchyard and up on to the Downs again. Contouring through some mature woodland we continue downwards to Pond Barn, then following a chalk track to Postles Barn, we go upwards again, and eventually join New Road, which is another chalk track, back down to East Dean.
We have eaten at the the Star & Garter many times and have always been made very welcome and have enjoyed excellent meals. Depending on numbers attending, we may need to choose our food at the start of the walk, but i will advise you if this is necessary
Please book in advance with the leader
There is one gentle climb up to East Dean hill, and a short but steep climb through woodland up towards New Road. Conditions underfoot are usually good
Park along the road nearby the pub.
