WILD WALKS
Inspiration Behind Wild Walks
Wild Walks came about having being inspired by taking many walks in the local downland of Bevendean & Mouslecoomb, along with walking the South Downs way over the lock down years. The project aims to encourage people to get out and explore what’s on our doorstep.
Moulsecoomb, Bevendean and Whitehawk are positioned on the edge of some stunning countryside, with the potential for a range of fantastic and easy to access walks. Being able to roam and enjoy the land around where we live is a free form of exercise and a wonderful way to connect with nature. Walking is a simple way for most of us to be able to look after our mental, physical and emotional health.
When walking locally I have been asked ‘Can you walk up here?’ or ‘What happens when you walk up here?’ Wild Walks aims to answer these questions for people living or visiting Moulsecoomb & Bevendean, who perhaps don’t have access to OS maps or a car. The walks are all possible with no map-reading skills and provide details of buses back to Brighton at the end of the walk
Supported by the National Trust and the Changing Chalk Community Grants Scheme, and funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, with thanks to National Lottery players.
