The South Downs Way - Part 1

The South Downs Way has been on my to-hike-list ever since I moved to the UK. Partly because it is easily accessible from London by train. In the beginning of April 2023 I finally had a week off work to hike this trail.
This is part 1 of 2 of this adventure.
The South Downs Way guidebooks usually describe the route from Eastbourne to Winchester, but I walked it in the opposite direction because finishing the hike along the chalk cliffs of the Seven Sisters is the most amazing and spectacular end to this 100 mile walk.
The scenery along the path is quite diverse but gentle with lots of pastures and barely any serious road walks/crossings. There were a few other hikers walking (parts of) the South Downs Way, but overall the route was very quiet and day hikers were generally only concentrated in certain popular sections.

Lovel to see, thanks for sharing Lianne 😊
I love Sussex and the South Downs, it's one of the most beautiful parts of the UK, I think 🌄 The old villages are amazing.
(The stunningly good YT recommendation algorithm bought me here - congratulations on 500 subs 🎉🎊)

Yo Lianne...very nice video. I'm on the West Coast of Canada....and I've watched people run the South Downs Way.....I'd like to try that one day....I was born in Winchester but left England when I was a baby. Where are you from originally? I'll be sure to check out part two!

[@lianne.o]

Yes, go for it! I encountered a ultrarun competition here while I was hiking (might be in part 2). I am from the Netherlands, so even low hills like the South Downs are adventurous for me :p

[@Mookiethedog]

Yes...I saw all the crazy runners in part 2! Peace!@@lianne.o
