The South Downs Way National Trail is a 100 mile path for walkers, cyclists, and horse riders between Winchester and Eastbourne.



Experience some of our finest countryside between Winchester, first capital of England, and the white chalk cliffs of Eastbourne. If you are interested in great views, attractive wildlife, visible prehistory, fine pubs and pretty villages, or if you just fancy a challenge, the South Downs Way awaits you.
