The Annual South Downs Way Walk
22nd - 30th June 2012
bookings are now open ... and passed the 60 mark in the first few weeks !
This is an organised nine day walk along the full 100 miles of The South Downs Way National Trail,
one of England's most beautiful long distance walks.
It has been enjoyed every June by hundreds of people
from all over the world, for the past 33 years.
It is, by tradition, a supported rather than guided walk - with everyone free to walk at their own pace.
The 'Footprints' team of ten experienced leaders walk the whole trail with you.
And you're assured that there will always be people nearby to help with directions, some first aid or just a friendly smile.
With luxury coach transport provided to and from the trail each day,
it is by far the simplest way of completing this linear walk.
