Coastlines, Downs, Woodlands, and Historic Routes

From the chalk cliffs of the Seven Sisters to the rolling landscapes of the South Downs and the historic countryside of the High Weald, East Sussex contains a diverse network of routes, landscapes, and places shaped by geology, history, and centuries of movement through the land. Trails such as the South Downs Way, 1066 Country Walk, Vanguard Way, and Sussex Ouse Valley Way reveal many of these environments, while landscapes including the South Downs National Park, High Weald National Landscape, Seven Sisters Country Park, and the Sussex coastline showcase some of the county's most distinctive natural environments.

Long-distance routes pass through coastal landscapes, chalk downland, woodland, river valleys, farmland, and historic settlements, linking places that have shaped the character of East Sussex for generations. Together, these routes and landscapes reveal the character of the county while providing opportunities to explore at a slower pace through self-guided travel and independent exploration.
