Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This circular walk takes you through the woodland surrounding Powdermill Reservoir in Sussex. The walk runs for a distance of just over 3 miles on a series of woodland paths.
Start the walk from Powdermill Lane, just to the south of the reservoir. From here you can pick up paths heading north into Brede High Woods. The woods are very peaceful with lots of interesting flora and fauna to see along the way.
For more of a waterside walk, head west to visit the pretty Darwell Reservoir. The reservoir is located just to the west and has some nice woodland trails through Darwell Wood as well.
