We did a really nice circular walk from The Long Man Inn which took just over an hour at a leisurely place and it was really lovely! Incredible views for pretty much the entire walk and the long man is a must-see!
We walked from the Jevington Rd Parking, which was free, along the south down way and go down to Wealdway, it was an easy walk and the views were amazing. We had a rest at the Long Man Inn and then continued our journey back to the car park via folkington. A bonus was to visit the 1600 year old Yew tree on the way to the Long Man Inn. Highly recommended this route as it is an easy walk and sufficiently long to have some exercise.
We had a lovely walk from here to Alfriston where we stopped for lunch. Gorgeous views all around. Free parking near the Priory. Would recommend if you're looking for a walk in the area.
It's such a great walk. There is a tiny car park at the other end of the village, if there are no spaces you'll have to park on the road. You can do 10min walk to the bottom of the Man and then decide if you want to go around to the top of it. You can go smaller or bigger loops, beautiful views views. Pub in the village is great too
This landmark can be seen from miles away by road and rail. After parking in the suggested carpark alongside the Priory, cross the road and head on a lovely walk towards the hillside. It can be muddy, and steeper in places but manageable for most. Plenty of public footpaths to circumnavigate if you wish to venture across the top and take in the views.
