パイクームの絶景の山頂・トップ12

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 enough trig pointed hilltop and easy enough to get to with grand views out over the South Downs.

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

Mount Harry rises to a height of 627 feet (191 m) and offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the South Downs and the Ouse Valley. It's characterised by the tall brazier, known as Lewes Beacon. This was erected in 2002 as a reminder of the beacon that stood here from the 16th century to warn of danger.

The locally well-known Lewes Beacon stands on top of Mount Harry and commands beautiful views over the town and surrounding countryside. Historically, the beacon was used as a signal point during times of conflict and also as a place for locals to gather and celebrate. Today, the landmark is a popular spot for walkers and anyone looking for a refreshing nature fix.
