The seven sisters are one of the most beautiful and iconic areas of the entire south english coast and should definitely be on your bucket list when visiting the region. Opposite the visitor center a concrete path leads you along a scenic river estuary towards the sea and beach. There you can take a left and make your way up to the cliffs. Take care because the climb is steep and can be dangerous when the underground is wet and slippery. In order to fully appreciate these beautiful cliffs we advise to schedule at least three hours, maybe even double if you want to walk to the very end and back. Don't forget to bring a picknick (or at least enough to drink) and your camera !

An absolutely beautiful part of the country which is great for walking through. As you walk towards the Belle Tout Lighthouse, behind you are spectacular views of the magnificent Seven Sisters. If you happen to be there towards sunset, some stunning photographs can be taken.

One of the most beautiful hikes I have ever done. Close proximity to a nicely-sized resort town makes it feasible for day trippers from London (which is what we were). The path is wide open and well-maintained, with incredible views all along the way. Take the green bus from Eastbourne and get off at one of the early stops. The earlier you get off the bus, the more you'll be walking uphill to reach the cliff's edge. We made it all the way to Birling Gap where there's a small cafe and gift shop. There's a set of stairs that takes you right down to the water, really beautiful. If you don't want to hike all the way back, you can catch the bus back to town.

I saw another site of England during this trip. This trip involved approx. 3 hours hike from Eastbourne. We had a chance to enjoy the annual performance of British Airforce! Such a pleasant experience, but I did walk around 30,000 steps that day. The hike was tiring but the view was worth it 💕💕 There is a restaurant in the middle of the hike, so we could recharge our energy and ate some ice cream before we continued the journey. Once you reach birling gap, there is a bus which could take you back to Eastbourne.

Gorgeous place to walk, seeing a Spitfire overhead made the day. Advise wearing boots as very muddy! Saltmarsh cafe worth a stop either at the beginning or end of your walk

An absolutely fantastic part of the country. Marvellous walks either across the top of the Seven Sisters from Birling Gap or out towards them along the Cuckmere river. If you're in this part of the country you should not visiting this area.

Most amazing trek. We took the longest version and were exhausted by the end. Very pleasantly though. Also very nice ice cream truck and small quaint restaurant at the end best Burling Top..

I visited the Seven Sisters country park whilst taking part in the Cancer Research ‘Big Hike’ event in June walking from Beachy head via the Birling Gap and following the River Cuckmere to the visitors’ centre. Leaving the Birling gap, the visitor climbs up the South Downs Way on an unsurfaced road to ‘Went Hill’ and from here on a clear day. the walker is rewarded with views out to sea and also west along the undulating Seven Sisters cliffs to the Cuckmere River. On the day of my visit, it was sunny and out to sea there was a visual phenomenon known as ‘Fata Morgana’ in which ships at sea appear to be floating in the air. The walking surface is predominantly grass over chalk downs though the wide well trodden footpath shows signs of erosion caused by thousands of feet and the surface can become loose and crumbly in places. This was particularly true of some of the downhill sections which can be steep and require care when negotiating some of the paths worn down to the chalk in a shallow trough. If taking children and / or animals with you, the visitor should be aware that the cliff edges can be treacherous and there is a sheer drop from these to the sea below, As the walk approaches Cuckmere Haven, there are some marvellous views and photographic opportunities to be had. At Cuckmere Haven there is a large expansive beach area formed as the River Cuckmere empties into the sea. If followed inland the South Downs way turns to a well maintained level concrete path which leads to the Seven Sisters Country Park information centre The path follows the river and there are some more views to be had as the it makes its serpentine way inland. The path eventually brings the visitor to the Seven Sisters Country Park information centre and I believe that there is (pay & display) car parking here as well. The walk from the Birling Gap to the Seven Sister visitor centre is about four miles or eight if you make the return journey and is well worth the walk, to see and experience part of Great Britain’s iconic landscape.

It was really beautiful! Even we need to walk more than half an hour to there. It worth the time! Just remember to wear a comfy shoes and better with jeans as the wind was really strong! Also be careful of the stones near the ocean as it was quite sharp. It was really a nice experience to have as a couple!
