Dog walks in Sussex
Coastal and countryside dog walks in Sussex - dramatic chalk cliffs, rolling downland, and coastal paths. Off-lead details and seasonal notes.
Seven Sisters is one of the most recognisable stretches of walking on the South Downs - white chalk cliffs, rolling downland, and long views out to sea. Dogs need to be kept on a lead or under very close control near the cliff edges; the drops are serious. The South Downs Way runs through the area, opening up longer routes away from the cliff line.
