South Down Way East Sussex..AONB

The South Downs Way runs for around 100 miles through the South Downs National Park and follows the old routes and droveways along the chalk escarpment and ridges of the South Downs. The route provides the visitor with the opportunity "to get away from it all" without having to travel too far in this busy part of England. The landscape comprises wide grassy or flinty tracks on chalk downland, mostly grazed by sheep on the hills with arable crops below. The western part of the downs is rolling farmland, the West Sussex Downs are dominated by a steep, often wooded scarp with views across the Weald below, while the East Sussex Downs are classic open grassland running down to the sea cliffs
