This is a leisurely walk offering good views in familiar territory.  The ascents and descents are mostly gentle but there are a couple of steeper bits joining and leaving the Greensand ridge. 

Lunch is at Ide Hill.  The Cock Inn has a great situation on the village green for those who enjoy a pub lunch.  Picnickers will find benches dotted around the green and the community shop by the car park has its own cafe.
