Newhaven walks

Sea, Sun and … the Seven Sisters walk of course! When the weather is nice and the temperatures are rising, lace up your hiking boots (or trail runners, it’s summer after all), apply the sunscreen and get the brim out of the closet.

The Seven Sisters are magnificent white cliffs cut in half by the River Cuckmere, which ends its course towards the sea. Part of the Southdowns National Park, the site is protected. It is one of the most beautiful natural sites in South-East England. We walk among the sheep (many gates to pass) toward the cliffs to walk back along the meandering river.

Alfriston is a beautiful village, with old houses and a lovely Common in front of its typical church. Clergy House was the first acquisition of the National Trust.
