Devils Dyke

This Devils Dyke cycling experience from Brighton and Hove offers a scenic and moderately challenging ride through the South Downs. Lasting around three hours, the journey begins with a short test ride to ensure comfort and confidence on the bike. Riders then head towards Devils Dyke, a dramatic V shaped valley known for its impressive depth and sweeping views. The route continues downhill to the historic village of Poynings, where there is a short break near a traditional countryside pub before moving on through quiet rural surroundings.

The ride passes through Fulking village, where a natural spring adds to the charm of the landscape. Cyclists then climb back up the hill, passing historical features such as an ancient flint oven and remains of an isolation hospital. The route follows the ridge of the South Downs Way, offering panoramic views across the countryside and coastline. The experience ends back at Devils Dyke with a chance for photos before returning to Brighton, making it a well balanced mix of activity, history, and scenery.
