Itinerary

Famous walk over the Seven Sisters white cliffs offering some of the most spectacular coastal downland views in the whole of the UK.

Starting in Eastbourne we will definitely need some extra energy for the first part of our walk - the highest point of the cliffs, Beachy Head. Look for the red and white candy stripes of the glorious lighthouse, built in 1902.
The path runs close to the edge of the chalky cliffs and provides superb views. We will stop for a lunch and a tea & cake break in a café and pub by the seafront.

Relaxed we head to famed Brighton for the last beer :) and indulge coffee by the sea.
