Alfriston to Eastbourne

About trip

This is the easterly end of the South Downs Way, a National Trail running from Winchester to Eastbourne. This 17 km section provides particularly good walking, with a mixture of riverside, woodland and downland stretches, finishing with the superb Seven Sisters cliff-top walk. You can reach Alfriston by bus from Polegate which has a station accessible from e.g. Clapham Junction.  The walk ends on the outskirts of Eastbourne and you can get any of several bus routes to the train station (or walk).
