アンスティアンドステイプルフィールドのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

急な丘の頂上からは美しい景色が望めます

There is a local car park at the Activity Centre leading straight onto the walk around the reservoir. Currently the foot path is very wet and muddy in places but would be a nice walk spring/summer/ autumn. There are a few benches around the reservoir for stopping and taking in the view.

The Sussex Ouse Valley Way is a 42-mile (68 km) long-distance footpath that basically follows the course of the River Ouse from its source to the sea. It starts from Lower Beeding near Horsham to the coast at Seaford. It is generally regarded as an easy footpath, as most of the route is flat riverside walking. It is a very scenic journey as it goes through beautiful quintessential English countryside for most of its journey. Here by Upper-Ryelands Bridge on Border Hill Lane, you come across the fantastic structure of the Ouse Valley Viaduct that stretches out across you in all its magnificent structural glory, simply a stunning view.

This is the location of the only (single) public toilet on this route, and there’s also a kiosk for hot and cold drinks and ice creams. Long queues for both.

Apart from a café bar where you can stop for a break, this center offers a variety of activities at Ardingly Reservoir, including junior and adult sailing, paddleboard rentals, and the opportunity to try windsurfing, among others.

The Ouse Valley Viaduct near the village of Balcombe in West Sussex is one place you must see to believe. From here you have a great viewpoint to look at in all its glory.

Stunning architecture of a very cool Victorian viaduct built in 1842 and one of the most ornate bridge like structures in the UK. The classic standing in the archway infinity shots you can get are really cool but be prepared for a bit a queue to take them. A really busy place for a good reason.

There is a brilliant map of walks around Balcombe, including the viaduct. Available from the pub, tea rooms or stores.
