The latest issue of Country Walking ushers in a new era by welcoming you to the South Downs Britain¹s newest national park.
We¹ve been busy on the south coast exploring the wonderful chalk downlands of Sussex and Hampshire, from the iconic cliffs of the Seven Sisters to the mystical trees of Chanctonbury Ring via the home of Jane Austen, some fantastic pubs, and the odd windmill.
We¹ve come back with some amazing walks which will turn you into an instant expert on this newly-blessed landscape. Plus we¹ve got the low-down from the Government on what being a national park will actually mean for the downs.
