The Centurion Way is a popular walking and cycling path running from Chichester to West Dean.

It follows the route of the former Chichester to Midhurst railway line and the path is named after the Roman centurions who once walked these lands during the Roman occupation of Britain.

The section between Chichester and Lavant passes through a beautiful open space and is dotted with interesting sculptures and welcoming picnic areas. The terrain is tarmac throughout and there's a gentle south to north incline.
