52 Favourite West Sussex Walks

Richard Williamson's weekly walking column has long been one of the most popular features in the Chichester Observer, Worthing Observer and West Sussex Gazette. Now, following the format that has proved such a hit over the years, for the first time he has compiled his favourite walks - one for every week of the year - with hand-drawn route maps. His knowledge and love of the timeless South Downs landscape and its varied flora, fauna and stories - from bat-birds and the Devil's Jumps to beloved pubs and famous poets - combine with practical notes on routes that can be covered easily in an afternoon.
Richard Williamson was for 30 years the manager of Kingley Vale National Nature Reserve and has an unparalleled knowledge of South Downs wildlife and lore.
