The South Downs Way National Trail is a glorious walk from Eastbourne to Winchester, exploring the Sussex Downs and East Hampshire Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The official South Downs Way leads the walker along the 100 miles (160km) route following the northern escarpment for much of the way and rarely descends to habitation except where river valleys interrupt the regular course of the Downs. This guidebook describes the South Downs Way in 12 daily stages and is illustrated with OS mapping. The South Downs Way links many ancient and historical tracks, passing many sites of particular interest to those with a thirst for the past, but the main joy is the appreciation and recognition of this surprisingly secretive land that will please and delight any walker. The guide is part of a two-book series on the North and South Downs Ways.
