Overview

A fairly hilly 11.5 mile walk through lots of woods but with vineyards and open sections with good views. We'll use a stretch of the North Downs Way before descending to Upper Bush and Lower Bush, followed by a steep uphill to the Darnley Mausoleum and back down towards Lower Luddesdown. Picnic lunch just before the village but there may be a chance for a swift drink in The Lion. On via Luddesdown village and along the west side of a valley towards Harvel. Finally down and up, down and up across a couple of valleys back to the start. One section of path in the afternoon is rather eroding, so if you're a user of walking poles, make sure to bring them.
