Circular country in Groombridge
Unspoilt nature, country and forest footpaths in all directions, stile gates and turnstiles, a little tarmac to connect them, a very scattered settlement, streams and rather wet areas: this is what the hike mainly consists of.The English countryside is home to many architectural treasures, such as stone churches with square bell towers, typical farms with pointed cones topped with a white turret, castles and huge estates combining (former) farms and dwellings.At the end, the walk takes a small section of the old railway line that connected Groombridge to Hartfield and Crawley. Transformed into a cycle path called Forest Way, this route is the British equivalent of the Belgian RAVeL or the French Voie Verte, with the advantage of not yet (2025) having been concreted or asphalted.
