Walking In Brighton

There’s so many different routes to see and explore when walking in Brighton. Here’s a short guide on the best ones to try out during your stay.

With the South Downs National Park right on the doorstep of Brighton and Hove, and with more than 3000km of footpaths, there’s no excuse not to get your walking boots on and trail off into the countryside.

Why not walk the iconic South Downs Way, seek out the Jack and Jill Windmills or explore the Biosphere for a brilliantly unique day out.

There are plenty of opportunities for many refreshing walks and woodland strolls in and around the Sussex countryside. Some of these walks begin in Brighton itself. For instance, the undercliff walk which takes you from east of the marina along the bottom of the chalk cliffs that run to the suburb of Saldean.

Others such as Stanmer Park’s award winning walks, where you are met with beautiful countryside woodlands and extensive open lands are just a short car or bus ride away.
