About Stalkers Copse
A proper woodland walk through Sussex countryside, Stalkers Copse is the kind of place you stumble upon rather than plan for. Dense trees, quiet paths, and the occasional glimpse of open fields beyond - it's straightforward forest walking without the crowds you'd find at more famous spots.
You're mainly here for the walk itself. The woodland's thick enough that you lose track of nearby Henfield entirely, which is rather the point. There's something restorative about being surrounded by trees after a flat drive through the weald. Bring decent boots if there's been rain - the ground gets boggy in patches.
Walkers will appreciate this more than anyone else. It's not a destination with viewpoints or adventure playgrounds, so young children might find thirty minutes quite enough unless you're after a solid leg-stretcher. The paths are easy enough for families, nothing technical, but there's no café or facilities to speak of.
If you're staying at Downsview Park or Blacklands Farm nearby, this makes a decent morning break before heading elsewhere. It's free and accessible most of the time - just check conditions after heavy rain as it can become rather muddy. Allow an hour for a proper wander, longer if you're the type to stop and listen.
Not a must-do, but if you've got a couple of hours to kill near Henfield, far worse ways to spend them than walking among the trees.
