This is a charming rural lane surrounded by the peaceful West Sussex countryside. Enjoy views of fields and woodland with quaint cottages dotted inbetween.

This is the path that goes around Cissbury Ring Iron Age Fort, which is owned by the National Trust. At over 60 acres, it is the second largest Hill Fort in England and also a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) famous for its variety of butterflies. There are nice views to be had from here south to Worthing and the sea. It is easily accessible from the Storrington Rise car park.

High up and commanding stunning views of the South Downs National Park stands this memorial to Mr. and Mrs. Walter Langmead, who were local farmers. The memorial has been erected to give weary walkers and cyclists the chance to rest after climbing up from the nearby picturesque Steyning Bowl.

Great views to Chanctonbury can be had from here in the late afternoon sunshine.

Single track run to Canada bottom.

Beautiful views but narrow tracks

With train stations at the start and the finish, and ports that can have you in France in only a few hours, the South Downs Way is easily accessible. If camping out along the route is not your thing there are a few hostels and B&Bs along the way too, or if you’re feeling strong you can tackle it all in one ride! Another handy point about the South Downs Way is that drinking taps are frequently dotted along the route, which on a summer’s day become essential when out on the ridge; there is little shade in these hills.
