アルシストンの天然記念物・トップ20

I can recommend visiting the Long Man of Wilmington (it isn't an ancient Fertility symbol more an artificial 17th century tourist attraction, more fool, the faux American witches I saw there several years ago). However I can't recommend leaving the Long Man pub down the road, at 7.30pm, in January, several days after it snowed and then several days of negative temperatures froze it in place, and then climb straight up past it. There is a path but we decided that would take far too long to divert to it. It was not surprisingly steep.

This is quite a challenging walk, we got to the Birling Gap car park early to set off , please note that the cafe opens at 9.30am. The views were breathtaking, everywhere you looked. We stopped at the visitors centre and refuelled and continued the walk, again every footpath had a view, we can across another little cafe stop and continued on. My husband and I both agreed this has been our number one walk and will definitely be doing it again 😊

There are some paid parking spaces directly at the visitor center, a good starting point for hikes on the cliffs.

The Seven Sisters are an impressive formation of chalk cliffs that are definitely worth visiting. The Seven Sisters cliffs have been shaped by the coastline over centuries and are part of the Seven Sisters Country Park. It's worth paying a visit to the impressive coastal landscape and taking a short hike through the national park.

The Seven Sisters are seven chalk cliffs that fall vertically into the sea along the coast. The view from above is simply sensational. You walk across meadows and just have to be careful not to get too close to the edge. There is also a nice cafe near the lighthouse.

This is a beautiful nature trail. The path by the Cuckmere river is good and where the trail meets the Cuckmere river is a fantastic photo spot opportunity. The views up and down the river is gorgeous. This is especially so on a nice day like we had.

We were sure this was sister 2, but the first hill we believed was number 1 wasn’t a sister

Keeping watch over the South Downs, The Long Man of Wilmington is one of Sussex’s most iconic features. At 72 metres, he’s the largest depiction of a human figure in Europe and a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
