The March for Marsden takes a circular route through the Mid Sussex countryside.

There's a three kilometre walk through woodland near Hurstpierpoint or a more demanding nine kilometre walk which takes in Wolstonbury Hill.

It's a walk of great interest too with spectacular views from Wolstonbury and a chance to enjoy the rare chalk grassland which ensures the area retains its site of special scientific interest designation.

The walks are both family friendly and dogs (on leads) are welcome.
