Walk Description:

We visit Highdown Hill every week for the Hillbillies workout, but it’s also a fantastic spot for a scenic walk, one we often forget to fully enjoy! Highdown boasts some of the most breathtaking views in the area. On a clear day, you can take in the stunning sights of Arundel Castle, the Isle of Wight, and even Eastbourne stretching out in the distance.

If you’re looking for a refreshing winter outing, this is the perfect place to explore. Just remember to bring sturdy shoes, as the paths can get a little slippery during the colder months. Come and experience the beauty of Highdown Hill.

Walking Levels Explained

Easy – Up to 2.5 to 3 mph 

Ideal for casual walkers who enjoy conversation along the way. These walks are mostly flat, and any hills will be tackled slowly and gently.

Moderate – 3 to 3.5 mph

A steady pace that may lead to slightly heavier breathing, particularly on inclines. Suitable for those looking for a bit more of a workout.

Challenging – 3.5 to 4 mph

Suited for experienced walkers who enjoy pushing their pace. These walks may include longer durations (2+ hours), steeper inclines/declines, or uneven terrain. Though challenging, there will be moments to catch your breath, usually on flat or downhill sections.

Note: We never leave anyone behind. The walk leader makes sure everyone is looked after.
