Join us for this beautiful, women-only day hike through the stunning landscape of High Weald, beginning and ending in Etchingham with a fairytale castle to boot.
Meeting at Etchingham Train Station—at 10:30 am sharp, we’ll head northwards out of town, skirting the spring woodland and heading up into the low-lying hills for stunning countryside views.
Roughly halfway through our journey, we’ll reach the 14th-century moated castle at Bodium for a splendid photo op before joining the River Rother and following it to Roberstbridge. Here, depending on time, we can take a pitstop at a pub before diverting through the surrounding farmland to make our way back into Etchingham for our finish.
This is a moderately challenging walk due to the distance and some elevation.
WHAT TO BRING:
At least 2 litres of water
A packed lunch
Snacks
WHAT TO WEAR:
Layers if it’s chilly
Waterproofs if it’s raining
Walking boots are strongly advised, as it’ll likely be very muddy in some rural stretches if it’s been raining
