Overview

An early start to get you ready for breakfast at The Kiosk, Dukes Drive. The walk will take us along the lower path towards Beachy Head and then a sharp ascent to the top, bringing us to the Bomber Command Memorial. Once on top an undulating walk towards Belle Tout Lighthouse giving us views towards the Downs and out to sea. From Belle Tout we head in land picking up our return path through the fields below Beachy Head. We make our way through Bullin Dean, Heathy Brow and back to Dukes Drive.
