Eridge Circular Walk: Adventure and History in the Heart of High Weald!

A Journey Through Time and Nature

Hey Spartans! Ready for a new and exciting adventure that combines history, nature, and a moderate challenge? Then you can't miss our next excursion: Eridge Circular Walk. This walk is one of the gems of our Hiking in London club and we undertake it twice a year to give everyone the chance to explore it.

Step Back in Time with a Heritage Railway

Imagine hopping on a heritage railway that takes you back to a bygone era. Our journey begins with a ride on an authentic steam locomotive, winding through the stunning landscapes of High Weald. Feel the steam, hear the whistles, and soak in the fresh morning air – it’s pure magic!

Hiking Among Massive Sandstone Outcrops

After disembarking from the train, we embark on a 16¾ km (10.4 miles) circular walk that showcases some of the most impressive sandstone formations in the area. These massive outcrops not only offer breathtaking views but also hold fascinating stories and local legends. Did you know that some parts of High Weald are rumored to be haunted? Get ready to hear some intriguing mysteries along the way!

Explore a Nature Reserve and Its Wildlife

Our route also takes us through a nature reserve, a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts. Keep your eyes peeled for a variety of birds, butterflies, and maybe even a curious deer joining our adventure. The diverse flora and fauna of High Weald are simply amazing, and each step brings us closer to this unique environment.

A Full Day of Adventure

The hike itself is estimated to take 4 hours and 5 minutes, but to fully enjoy the experience, we recommend setting aside at least 8 and a half hours. This allows time for the train journey, stops at points of interest, sharing a delicious meal, and capturing those epic photos we all love!

Discover Curiosities and Unsolved Mysteries

Eridge is more than just a walking route; it's a backdrop filled with stories and secrets. Throughout the walk, our leader Thomas will share anecdotes about the local history, from old mills to ancient mines that once powered the region’s economy. And who knows, we might even stumble upon some unresolved mysteries that still linger on these trails.

Join the Spartan Family!

At Hiking in London, we believe every hike is an opportunity to challenge yourself, connect with fellow Spartans, and create unforgettable memories. The Eridge Circular Walk is perfect for both seasoned hikers and those just starting out. No matter your experience level, there's something for everyone and a family of friends ready to support you every step of the way.
