Burgess Hill

Walks

Here are details of our next walk. It's another local one, to minimise travel.

In the New Year, our annual stroll out towards Wivelsfield:
Thursday, 13th January 2022, at 10 am – Bedelands to Wivelsfield Church (4 miles)

A walk on the north-east side of Burgess Hill. The ground will be very wet and muddy. Good walking boots or wellingtons vital, a stick would be advisable, 7 stiles.
I have changed the route slightly this year, as I wasn't comfortable with the section where we went under the railway at Valebridge, and this year, the verge is very overgrown. But it's a simple change to the route, and slightly shorter.

We will stop by the church for a New Year toast, and some nibbles if we're lucky !

Meet at car park by Burgess Hill Football Club, Maple Drive, RH15 8DL. Follow the brown signs for “Bedelands Nature Reserve” from either Leylands Road near Wivelsfield Station or from London Road traffic lights at junction with Maple Drive. Bus 34/35 passes near the Football Club.

Walk Leader: Chris Coates, with various helpers

After that, we need some walks from February onwards, to fill the programme - please let me know if you have a walk to lead - any day you like !

Strolls (about 2 miles) - led by Margaret Carroll

Shorter strolls of about 2 miles starting from various points in Burgess Hill

These walks are designed for those who perhaps can’t manage the longer distances. The group started as Monday evening strollers but will continue through the autumn and winter during the day. They will be twice monthly on a Monday, one in the morning and one in the afternoon

All members are very welcome to join either, or both, walking groups
