POSTPONED UNTIL LATER THIS YEAR DUE TO STORM DENNIS. Coastal hike, white cliffs
Why not enjoy the seaside for the day on this lovely coastal walk from Newhaven to Portslade?
This walk sets off passing by a Victorian fort, and along clifftop path. There are delightful sea views along the way, heading in the direction of Peacehaven. At times there are lovely views of the undercliff path below, as well as out to sea.
Following this, the cliff path continues to Saltdean, and at this point, we will pass by the white cliffs of Rottingdean. From there we head into Brighton, passing by the busy marina, and along the promenade. The walk does get busy along this stretch, with plenty of others enjoying the promenade too.
We will pass by Brighton’s famous pier, and head further along the coast. Heading towards Hove, and then to Portslade, the promenade gets quieter again, before we reach our final destination.
MEETING TIME: London Victoria, in front of the departure boards near platform 12 at 08.30. We will be catching the 09.16 train to Newhaven, arriving 10:38.
Cost: organiser fee £8 payable on RSVP.
Train tickets are not included, available on the day approx £20 pp group saver please arrive prompt and bring the correct cash if you want to be included in group tickets.
GRADE: Intermediate 23km 16m 6 hrs hiking 280m ascent Easy (but long!). The walk is 15 miles (23 kilometres) on coastal paths and promenades. There is some elevation gain but not much. However, given that the walk is long, we will need to keep up a moderate pace throughout the walk to ensure we complete it at a reasonable hour. There is an option for those that want to, to end the walk in Brighton or Hove instead. Walk finishes approx 17:30.
