Overview

Starts at Holly Hill Car Park. EX148. From the car park we descend towards the Coldrum Stones before heading across fields to Ryarsh for lunch at The Duke of Wellington or bring a picnic. In the afternoon we head back to the Downs and climb back up to the car park. Some mud is likely. One steep descent in the morning and ascent in the afternoon.
