GO London Hiking leads a 21km (13-mile) intermediate circular walk with 400m of ascent and around 5 hours 30 minutes of walking plus breaks. The route climbs Steep Down for views over the Adur Valley, follows part of the South Downs Way past Steyning Bowl, and visits the historic village of Steyning before exploring the remains of the 11th-century Norman motte-and-bailey Bramber Castle.
