For a day to remember, enjoy this truly special guided walking experience in the South Downs.  This lovely tour is featured in the National Parks Experience Collection.

Walk in the steps of our ancestors exploring Black Down, the highest point and a hidden heathland treasure within the Park. With our experienced guide leading the way, learn all about the fascinating history and geology of the area, listen to the birdsong, enjoy the fresh air and take in the absolutely stunning views of patchwork fields, rolling hills, ancient woodland and quaint villages.  Savour a delicious luxury picnic full of scrumptious local produce at one of the best viewpoints in the Park. Learn all about the fascinating backgrounds and stories of the food and drink you are enjoying and their producers. Then relax and listen to the words of Alfred Tennyson, who was so inspired by the beauty of the area.

Complete your experience with a tasting session of locally produced beers and ales.  Sample a generous complimentary selection of award winning beers and ales and learn all about their production process.
