ベプトンの絶景の山頂・トップ14

It's worth noting that the pictures here are of Devil's Humps (10 mins away) not Bow Hill. This marker is in the middle of some woodland without a view (but you do walk past a good view as you turn off the main path!)

The views were amazing, after the 800 ft climb 😆

Amazing views

Kestrels making a good show for us!

This is a great place to visit at any time of the year, but is particularly special in the autumn. At the NE edge of the village, on the main road (A285), is a new small carpark. The path up to the windmill (Mill Lane track on OS maps) follows the old Roman Road, Stane Street. Beyond the cottages is the famous Halnaker Tree Tunnel. The sunken path has trees on both sides which look particularly fantastic on sunny, autumn days. There are great views in every direction when you get up to the windmill.

Black Down is the highest point in the South Downs National Park at 290 m. As such it is also is classified one of the UK's Marilyns. Expect a landscape of wavy hair grass, purple heather and pine trees.

Known as the ‘Devil’s Humps‘and the ‘King's Graves,‘ many legends and folklores surround these Bronze Age barrows. Whatever the truth the commanding position at the very top of Kingley Vale is a clear indication that they marked the resting place of important people, perhaps tribal leaders. This may be evidence of the beginnings of social hierarchies at this time. https://www.southdowns.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Kingley-Vale-Hidden-Trail-Final-web-version.pdf

Torberry Hill is an Iron Age hillfort in West Sussex. It is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The hillfort is located within the parish of Harting, within the South Downs National Park. The hillfort has a pear-shaped layout and covers an area of 2.8 hectares. It has a low dump rampart and a ditch that enclose the western part of the hill. The eastern part is defended by the steep slope of the hill. The interior of the hillfort contains several storage pits that date to the Iron Age. The hillfort was built in several phases, starting from the 5th century BC. Torberry Hill is also a mountain summit that is 156 metres high with a prominence of 65 metres. The summit can be identified by a grass mound. There are several walks that can be done around Torberry Hill, such as the one to West Harting Down or Beacon Hill.
