Ditchling Beacon to Devil's Dyke, South Downs walk, Sussex EastWalking route11.2 km▾
This walk takes in one of the most stunning sections of the South Downs Way. Spring & Summer bring rich plant life thanks to the chalk soil, forming unique grassland habitat. Great bus links from Brighton. Mostly flat until Pyecombe where it gets steep.
