South Downs Way Hike
The Great British countryside is truly one the world’s most iconic landscapes; and if you’re after a hike that encapsulates everything you associate with it (badgers, bridleways, a bit of peace and quiet), then look no further than the South Downs Way.
Possibly the most quintessentially British stretch of land you’re likely to find in southern England, the easy-to-follow trail also connects up some of Sussex’s most idyllic towns and villages; where historic pubs and inns are more accustomed to being invaded by muddy boots and dogs than they are after-work drinkers. If you’re hiking from west to east (which I recommend), you should catch your first glimpse of the sea as you head down the hills into Alfriston. From there, you can expect lung-fulls of crisp, refreshing sea air, all the way to Eastbourne. Magic.
