Walk 3078 - Cissbury Ring And Chanctonbury Ring from Washington

Nat Park	South Downs
County/Area	West Sussex
Author	Donald Morton
Length	8.3 miles / 13.4 km
Ascent	1150 feet / 348 metres
Grade	easy/moderate

This is a circular walk on the summit of the South Downs and for the whole circuit there are wide views over the hills and folds of this beautiful area. Often there is a 360 degree panorama and with comparatively little woodland this is truly a big sky landscape. The route passes close to two Iron Age hill forts which can be explored more thoroughly with slight detours.
