Join us for a 12 mile walk on the South Downs near Amberley in West Sussex.
In case you are wondering, Great Bottom is the name of one of the dry chalk downland valleys on the route.
 
The event start time for NatRam walks shows when walkers may begin gathering at the start point before the group sets off (usually about 20 to 30 minutes later).
The programme for Stark Trekkers and NatRam walks is available on the Naturist Ramblers web site at the NatRam walks programme page.  
BN members new to Stark Trekkers and NatRam walks should contact the Club Secretary for more information about Naturist Ramblers Club membership, and detailed directions to the event meeting point.  Please bring some ID (e.g. a BN membership card) and be prepared to provide some contact details on a completed registration form.
 
More information about our walks on the web site explains how our walks are conducted, and gives some guidance on what to expect on the day.
Note:
Some of our walks are run jointly with British Naturism (marked BN/NatRam), but if you are a Naturist Ramblers member, there is no need to be a BN member too.
If BN members attend those walks, there is no need for them to be a Naturist Ramblers member too.

Questions to 7kk19bnu4spcmn.andrew are OK too.

Review by a previous visitor:
This was my first time visiting High Beeches and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The weather cleared up in time for the start and I ended up being one of the first through the gate (and about the last to leave). The gardens are lovely with various paths, ponds and meadow areas. The paths are a mixture of gravel and grass which can be steep in places as the grounds are basically a small valley with a stream down the middle. The gardens are well kept and you disrobe in the car park which is all hidden from view of the road. It wasn’t very busy (mainly due to the weather earlier I think and the temperature was not what you’d expect for July) but it was great to have the run of the place and to just leave everything in the car. There are plenty of seats all around the site for those who need rests. 
 Thank you to the organisers!! Definitely recommended if you like getting back to nature.
