Tips

Hiking

Once quarried for chalk, Heyshott Down has now been reclaimed by grasses and plant species such as bee orchid, horseshoe vetch and round-headed rampion. The increasing plant diversity is helping to bring back butterflies which once thrived in the region, including chalkhill blue and marbled white. Heyshott Down has been designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Hiking

A decent enough area with a trig pointed top. One of many trig points along the South Downs Way.
