ポイニングスの絶景の山頂・トップ8

Devil’s Dyke is the largest chalk land dry combe in Britain and an area of great beauty. It is a V-shaped valley that has the South Downs Way traversing it immediately south of its location. It also has a multivallate Iron Age hill fort adjacent to it to the west, where on some high ground there is a trig pint that sits on the southern rampart of the fort. At just over 710 feet high (217 m), it is not very high, but the views out over Adder Bottom and the South Downs towards the coast are superb.

At over 650 feet (200 m), Ditchling Beacon gives you a good climb and a great vantage point to see out over the surrounding countryside. To the north you look back at the lush countryside of the Weald, to the south are views of Brighton, and to the east and west, the rolling undulating views out over the South Downs.

Beautiful route over unpaved paths

Nice trig point placed on one of the actual ramparts of an Iron Age hillfort.

Devil's Dyke is a V-shaped valley situated in the South Downs National Park, not too far from Brighton. Here you will find the trig point of Devil's Dyke, standing tall at 217 m. From here, you will be afforded some magnificent views across the valley and rolling hills of the surrounding countryside.

Ditchling Beacon is the highest point in East Sussex, England, with an elevation of 248 m (814 ft). It is south of Ditchling and to the north-east of Brighton. It is a large chalk hill with a particularly steep northern face, covered with open grassland and sheep-grazing areas. It is the third-highest point on the South Downs, behind Butser Hill (270 m (890 ft) and Crown Tegleaze (253 m (830 ft).
