### 🌊 About the hike
We travel from London to Seaford, where our walk begins.
From Seaford, we'll follow the spectacular Sussex coastline across the Seven Sisters, with beautiful views over the English Channel and repeated climbs and descents across the famous chalk cliffs.
The route continues through the South Downs towards Beachy Head, before finishing in Eastbourne.
This is a rewarding full-day hike with some steep sections, so a reasonable level of fitness is required.
