Lovely walk through a valley with a stream and bridges back and forth and tropical fauna. On spring 2021 the lower path was blocked by a landslide and no access down to the beach - hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Such a beautiful place to spend a few hours. There is a car park, no toilets or restaurants, but plenty of nature and breathtaking views.

Amazing walk with breathtaking views. Melt your stress away. Some hills are hard but seats are situated in the perfect setting for taking it all in.

Some amazing hike routes there. Definitely recommend coming in April (I was here on the 20th). Bluebells everywhere! Making the views even more beautiful

Fantastic coastline with lush woodland atop dramatic golden cliffs. Could easily spend a few hours here walking the network of trails between Fairlight and Hastings. They're often steep and can be slippery after wet weather, but it's worth the challenge.There are some striking sandstone features to look out for, including a small cave in the woods. No facilities in this area but it helps keep the natural beauty unspoilt. Take care as there's a lot of erosion in the area and some areas have been closed.Check the tide tables in advance - if you visit during low tide you can make the steep but scenic descent into Hastings, and back east along Rock-a-Nore beach. Pick your way through the rocks and you'll be rewarded with a small waterfall onto the beach (best viewed after heavy rain).

Wonderful adventure spot. Part of the walk feels Jurassic, with a tiny valley full of ferns and a stream. It really makes you feel as if you're walking back in time.Fabulous fun, with a choice of either a coastal path route or a woodland walk. Part of the route has been blocked off by a landslide and signs pointing out a (very, very long) diversion route, but it's still accessible and safe if you're happy to challenge yourself a bit.Great walk with our pup, will be back :)(Dropped my jumper en route and someone was kind enough to hang it up!)

Absolutely stunning place to visit. Access is a steep walk with many uneven surfaces, but views are absolutely stunning and the local wildlife are very friendly

Beautiful place, ancient, even Jurassic Ghyll woodland and running stream. Go past the bridge to the old hermit cave in the rocks, then back along the path and up the steps to benches with outstanding views along the cliffs and coast. Carry on walking up to Fairlight and Firehills.

A pleasant walk amongst woods, the access path to the beach is ‘officially’ closed due to landslides, although it is accessible, at your own risk.

Beautiful walking trail between Hastings East Hill and Fairlight Cove. It's a varied and fun place to walk through but there are some muddy spots, so watch out if it's been raining! There are loads of different trails, some steeper than others, some with steps, some without.
