This was the goal of our ramble. We stopped for refreshment near the tree line, then made our way back down.

Back in April we took a walk with the Brighton Ramblers from Steyning town up to the Chanctonbury Ring, and unbeknownst to me I was recording images on chip 2 of my camera, where the next few days’ images remained until being discovered a couple of weeks ago,

There’s just something about a line of beach huts and the sea and sky…






A couple days after our walk across the Seven Sisters we joined the Brighton Ramblers on a short (~5 miles) trek through the rolling countryside of the South Downs, beginning and ending at Salt Dean, one of Brighton’s villages.

On completing the Seven Sisters, we returned to the bus stop at Exceat via a slightly different route that took us along the Cuckmere River in the fog.









Cliffs of Seven Sisters in the fog. The people in some of these images will give some idea of the scale.



















At the end of May we hiked across the Seven Sisters from the visitor centre to Birling Gap and back (about 7 miles, up and down). The day was extremely foggy so, while we didn’t really get great views of the cliffs, I did get lots of atmospheric shots.

We walked to the edge of town to see the chalk cliff that we had seen paintings of during a Brighton open studio tour.
