Get ready for a breathtaking hike along the Seven Sisters, one of the South Downs’ most dramatic coastal landscapes! Students will explore chalk cliffs, rolling hills, and sweeping views over the English Channel, all while enjoying the fresh sea air. The cliffs have even featured in films such as Atonement and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, giving you a chance to walk in the footsteps of movie magic. Along the route, you’ll spot diverse wildlife, from grazing sheep to coastal birds, adding a special touch to the adventure.
While the scenery is stunning, it’s important to stay on marked paths — the cliffs are constantly changing, and cliff edges can be unstable. This hike also provides a perfect opportunity to practice your English, as you chat with friends, follow directions, and share observations along the way. Whether you’re an experienced walker or new to hiking, the Seven Sisters trail offers fresh air, exercise, and unforgettable views, along with a chance to reflect on the raw power and beauty of nature.
