Firle to Alfriston circular - 10 miles

A circular 10 mile walk starting from Firle Village car park. We will walk through the grounds of Firle Place and along the base of the Downs, arriving at Alfriston for a picnic lunch stop. One steep climb up to the South Downs Way after lunch. We return to Firle along the SDW.

The descent back to Firle may be slippery, so please bring poles if you need them.

Please use free parking in Firle Village Car Park, rather than park in Firle village.

The Brighton and Hove Group of The Ramblers and its leaders accept no responsibility for any claims arising from the activities of the group. All walk leaders must be fully paid-up members of the Ramblers Association.

All sporting and leisure activities have inherent hazards associated with them and rambling is no exception. In spite of the safety of members being the paramount concern, accidents will occasionally occur. It is important, therefore, that when entering into the activity, each member appreciates that they have a responsibility to identify the hazards and take all reasonable steps to eliminate or minimise the potential for an accident to arise.
