This is a fantastic open stretch of the South Downs Way with spectacular panoramic views. It’s part of a bridleway running over the top of Windover Hill.

Windover Hill is famous for the Longman of Wilmington (or the ‘Wilmington Giant’), a huge figure carved into the slopes. The human figure is 235 feet (72 m) tall and holds two ‘staves’.
