Funiculaire West Hill walks

The old fishing quarter of The Stade Hastings

Departure from Hastings (East Sussex)

A loop through the old fishing quarter of Hastings, nestled between two hills. Old half-timbered houses from the 15th and 16th century. Pathways and stairways connecting sloped streets and views over the town and the sea. Fishing boats are lined up on the pebbles along the beach of this significant fishing port. The net huts, lined up like giant beach huts, are unique to Hastings.

Sussex Coast Path - Hastings to Eastbourne

Departure from Hastings (East Sussex)

Coast route following the proposed route for the England Coast Path. A very typical English seaside walk passing through the resorts of Hastings, St Leonards and Bexhill to end at Eastbourne. There is plenty of promenade walking with some beach walking. The beach is predominantly shingle throughout which makes it hard going. Because of this the section around Normans Bay and Pevensey Bay uses the coast road behind the coastal embankment to make it easier going. The ends of the walk are linked by the railway making for a very pleasant one day sectional walk.
