Description -
A new circular walk for everyone, with various joining and bug out points, as long or as short as you want, or can manage. Do, however, let me know where you intend to join us or bug out. It's long but with only one real climb.
We will start with coffee at the White Cliffs Cafe and then walk the Undercliff Path as much as possible to Peacehaven Heights. Here we will have coffee by the sea then undertake the big climb - 186 steps in total which we will take in three stages, pausing to bask in the magnificent scenery.
We then walk the edge of Peacehaven to Century Park, where we will stop for our lunch. Then, it's on to the Sewerage Works, edging round suburbia on the green stuff before a short stretch of road, then parkland and crossing Telscombe Tye to Saltdean.
We should finish around 14:30 / 15:00 depending on pace.

Our Ethos
We are an inclusive social hiking group with walkers of all abilities, fitness levels, and health statuses, whose walks are accessible by public transport.
We walk at an inclusive but moderate pace & like to stay together. Should we concertina, we will regather, allowing people to get their breath back before moving on, particularly on the climbs.
Please treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself.
There is ONE walk leader per walk to avoid confusion.
We run group walks, we start together, walk together, lunch together & finish together.
