Follow the blue walking route for beautiful views of the Park Golf Course. Designed by renowned golf architect and player, Donald Steel, the course winds past some of England's finest three-hundred-year-old Cedar trees. The Cedar trees can be found as part of The Great Sussex Way's Tree Trail. You will also pass the cricket ground, where matches have been played in front of Goodwood House since 1702.
