Our unique WALX sessions need to be experienced

Total Body WALX sessions provide the opportunity to feel for yourself just how powerful walking based exercise can be when it is at the right level for you. You will be introduced to other ways to improve balance and flexibility and to boost strength, help with weight loss and make walking WORK for you

Many members prefer to walk with poles as they find it is more effective than walking without. When poles are used, you are able to engage the upper body, core muscles, improve posture and burn more calories

Learn how to WALK WELL by harnessing the power of good posture, core muscles and the perfect stride. Experience how PACE and HILLS can be empowering and how working on balance, flexibility and strength can make walking twice as effective, whatever you are aiming to achieve

Walk Description:

If you don’t mind starting with a short road walk, this is a super circuit of just over an hour – good for those returning to walking after a break as there are some hilly sections but nothing too heavy. Combines a great range of terrains.

Start from the main car park on the southern edge of Compton, walk through the village and ten minutes beyond along a relatively quiet stretch of road.

Then a well-trodden footpath crosses a field and climbs a grassy dell with downland views if you look behind.

After an area of mixed woodland, cross a gently sloping hilltop and descend through even finer vistas, ending with a cross-field stroll back into Compton. 

Suggest car sharing Compton is a 25 minute drive from Chichester. Slightly muddy in a few places if there has been rain and clay in the last section can get a little slippery.  Hazards include tree roots and an uneven surface.  Excellent coffee is available at Compton’s tea shop/ village stores.
