January 23, 2021Great area, almost too muddy for walking and dogs have to stay on leads. Stags and deer walking around also wild pigs. Great afternoon out.

January 10, 2021December 29, 2020Loved it! Very muddy but super fun for the whole family, saw the horses, pigs, cows and deer. Looking forward to visiting again
December 28, 2020Muddy and wet, but lovely little walk. Saw some deer and cows but no pigs
December 17, 2020November 29, 2020November 29, 2020Busy but to be expected at the moment! Reasonably well marked , a few pointing in the wrong direction and a few could be a bit more obvious will deffo return in spring for this walk and expand to include some of the others
November 22, 2020November 22, 2020We completed this walk back in the Spring 2020, as lockdown measures were being eased. The trail is easy to follow, the natural farming is interesting with a variety of animals to see on your way. Little bit of quiet lane walking but very pleasant. Recommended
November 17, 2020November 16, 2020Perfect walk. Very muddy in places after all the rain so be prepared to slip around a bit! Saw four stag, a couple of deer and wild pigs.
November 12, 2020I really enjoyed this walk with its beautiful scenery, historical artefacts and wild animals. Route is easy to follow and well laid out. I really enjoyed the various things to see. It would be suitable for kids. The route was a bit muddy in places but expected for this time of year and on this type of trial. Overall a really nice short walk. Highly recommended.
November 8, 2020Beautiful scenery and reasonably flat. Got a bit lost as seemed to loose sign posts but managed to get back on track. Very muddy at the moment but still managed to run just need to be careful.
November 7, 2020It was a really lovely walk with lots of wildlife including wild pigs The paths were EXTREMELY muddy
October 30, 2020Great walk, done the others too (white, yellow and blue) seen so much wild life (lots of different species of deer, cows, pigs and storks) and the ruins. All flat and easy going... walk here often
October 20, 2020October 20, 2020love this route u see so many wildlife I go there walking regularly now. highly recommend
October 13, 2020Nice little route. All flat. Lovely to see the animals roaming about. Took the mother, all good for the elderly.
September 27, 2020Fabulous place to run, with gorgeous views, animals and places of interest.
September 26, 2020September 6, 2020August 31, 2020Nice easy route, uneven ground for lots of it so feet felt a bit battered at the end
July 19, 2020Great running route, well marked out. sign posted for 90% of it, if you have a map then great, I downloaded the route to my garmin fenix watch and it was easy to follw, The wildflife is amazing. Pretty flat route and 90% off road a litte bit bumpy and had a few cows and bulls to deal with but all part of the fun! Some of it is private paths across the knepp estate and if you map in Strava or plan a route in Garmin connect you have to switch to manual mode.

First to ReviewKnepp Estate are undertaking a rewinding project. They have moved away from intensive agricultural production and now allow rare breeds of cattle and pigs to roam the estate. This approach has greatly increased the biodiversity of the land. There are also herds of fallow deer and a ground breaking white stork reintroduction project taking place. The best way to describe this walk is that it is mini version of the New Forest.
