An enjoyable afternoon with the Soles and Souls walkers yesterday. We set off from Plumpton, led by Louise Gorst who runs a walk once a week and and likes to combine Sussex walks with an immersion in nature and a mindful approach to the outdoors. Periods of silence are interspersed with the opportunity to learn new things, from the arts of watercolour painting to natural navigation. Yesterday we climbed up from the Half Moon Inn to the South Downs Way, via Plumbton Bostall. The return walk took us through Ashcombe Bottom towards Blackcap.
Some of yesterday’s group can be seen in the picture, heading across a typically chalky South Downs field.
