context_page_description: The Sussex Border Path is a long-distance footpath around the borders of Sussex, a historic county and former medieval kingdom in southern England. The main path is 222 km long and stays close to Sussex's borders with Hampshire, Surrey and Kent, connecting Thorney Island to Rye. There is also an additional 53 km spur known as the Mid Sussex Path which links East Grinstead with Fishersgate and Mile Oak on the western boundary of the city of Brighton and Hove.
  The Sussex Border Path is not a National Trail although in 2020 it is expected that the England Coast Path National Trail will be completed, which will include a trail around the coast of Sussex. Together the two paths will make a route allowing for a complete walk around Sussex.
