THE HIGH WEALD AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY
Located in the heart of South East England and covering parts of Kent, Sussex and Surrey, the High Weald is one of 46 designated AONBs across the UK.
​
It is a medieval landscape of rolling hills studded with sandstone outcrops, dense woodland, small, irregular-shaped fields, hedgerows, scattered farmsteads; and ancient routeways.
​
This extensive network of footpaths, bridleways and ancient byways makes the High Weald a walker’s paradise.
