Trailblazer South Downs Way: Winchester to Eastbourne Planning, Places to Stay, Places to eat, includes 60 large-scale Walking Maps - Softcover

This 100-mile footpath follows the line of chalk hills stretching from Winchester to Eastbourne. Walking the length of the Downs is the best way to experience this beautiful landscape with its mixture of rolling hills, steep hanging woodland and windswept fields. You'll also pass through picture-postcard villages with welcoming pubs, thatched cottages and quintessentially English country gardens.
