Goodwood circular approx 6 miles 2/12/2012


Length: Approx 6 miles
Time: Approx 2.5 hours at a reasonable pace
Ascent: +-170m

We parked at Seven Points free car park (the one near to 9 on the map). It's not signposted but it's on the same road as the Singleton Open Air Museum. It's worth a visit even if you don't want to walk as just the views from the car park are stunning. 

1. From the top of the Trundle looking south-east towards Bognor.


 















2. And, south-west towards Chichester and the Isle of Wight.

















3. Thankfully we've never met this pair out on our walks.























4. How wonderful is this. Normally the trees are cut higher up the trunk so they are circular in section. Cut lower down you can see what a fantastic variation of shapes there are from tree to tree.




 






























5.The picturesque village of East Dean complete with village pond.


















6. The Blessed Virgin Mary, Singleton


 















7. Out of Singleton and up on to Charlton Down this path is much steeper than it looks, but mercifully not for too long.


















8. Looking north towards Singleton from the base of the Trundle.


















9. Two views from the car park. The first looking out to sea over Chichester Harbour and the second towards Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight.
