Welcome To New Lipchis Way
THE NEW LIPCHIS WAYThis is a delightful walking trail linking Liphook with Chichester Harbour. It was first conceived in the 1980's by a group of Liphook Ramblers who devised a route from their home town to Chichester Cathedral. It was brought to life in 2008 when Keith & Sally from 'Footprints of Sussex' received a small grant from West Sussex County Council to waymark the trail and produce a simple trail guide. They took the opportunity to extend the route southwards down to East Head at the entrance to Chichester Harbour.

The route of the trail around Midhurst has been changed due to the unexpected closure of a permissive path around the college. Click here to see the new route through Midhurst

In the autumn of 2011 more substantial funding was made available by the South Downs National Park Authority and by West Sussex County Council and Midhurst Town Council.
This allowed for the trail to be much more clearly waymarked with extra discs and for the trail guide to be re-written and re-printed. With the whole route now also being clearly shown on the Ordnance Survey Explorer maps 120 & 133 it makes for a delightful 3 day walk which can be followed without too much 'navigation'.
