November 27, 2020November 23, 2020November 7, 2020November 5, 2020November 1, 2020Super windy on the day we went but still amazing.
September 17, 2020I loved this walk. Parts of it was pretty hard, but it was amazing. I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys long walks and hiking.
September 13, 2020September 12, 2020Amazing!!! A bit difficult for newbies in hiking but doable. The views are of course breathtaking and the weather was very good, which was a plus, so make sure to check the forecast before going! Make sure you don’t miss the seaside path when approach Eastbourne, as there are many trials and it can be confusing.
September 5, 2020September 5, 2020August 28, 2020Love this trail! Got a good work out from it. It took us 5 hours with a generous lunch break. Perfect day trip from London to escape the city. At times it felt quite crowded. Sound travels really well, so sometimes it felt like people were right behind you.
August 9, 2020Amazing hike! Took us 5h (including 30min lunchbreak) Good to know: - Quite steep (more challenging than expected :) ). None of the route is flat. - No tree, so no shadow along the hike.
August 8, 2020I am a bit rusty with my hiking so I found going up all the hills hard work on such a hot day. my tip would be to take more water at least 2 litres for between Seaford and the next place for refreshments at Birling Gap. It is beautiful though and am proud of myself. It took for a rusty walker like me about 6 hours with a few short breaks from the start at Seaford beach to The Kiosk at the bottom of the hill in Eastbourne
August 2, 2020August 1, 2020Beautiful. A lot of up and down. Very busy today
July 24, 2020Phenomenal! First morning train to Seaford, got to the beach by the trailhead at 7 am. This hike was the preferred west to east for the “best views,” though western views are photogenic too. Lots of rabbits early on. I timed my trip to cross the Cuckmere at low tide (changed to reef shoes) to avoid hiking inland to the bridge; barely ankle deep. Caution: rabbit holes are everywhere including close to the cliff edge, enough to turn an ankle or pitch you over the edge. And I’ve learned from previous hikes the chalk is extremely slippery and sticky when wet; this was a dry day though thin overcast for the first half. Lots of wildflowers throughout, almost tame finches at the National Trust facilities. Also a nice side trip into East Dean would be the Tiger Inn, though didn't do this time. FOLLOWUP: Did Eastbourne train terminus to the Cuckmere and back a couple weeks later - stopped at the Beachy Head Inn on the return and while enjoying a meal and a pint, got to watch a couple of Spitfires making the south coast run.
July 13, 2020Great hiking route with very scenic views. If the tide's low, you can cross the Cuckmere river by foot and save almost one hour avoiding the diversion through the bridge.
July 11, 2020July 7, 2020This hike was simply lovely. It's also relatively easy. The sceneries are absolutely amazing. We the hike for a total of 6 hours with ample time for breaks. It's also totally safe to do solo hiking.
June 27, 2020June 22, 2020Great Hike! One of the highlights on my trip to London last year.
June 21, 2020Beautiful views of the sea. Loads of ups and down. It’s usually pretty windy so be prepared for it. Overall very nice.
June 21, 2020Great trail with Incredible views! Make sure to bring a hat and sunscreen :)
June 5, 2020Wonderful walk with breathtaking views. Definitely recommend.
May 24, 2020Great walk really enjoyed it. Very windy at the moment. The view is stunning all the way
