This exclusive marathon trail for JDRF will start near Brighton and follow the stunning South Downs Way National Trail crossing Firle Beacon before heading south to the coastal path above the iconic white cliffs of the Seven Sisters Country Park, some of the finest coastal paths in the country. Passing over the highest chalk sea cliff, Beachy Head, the course descends into Eastbourne where this epic trail will finish after one of the toughest challenges you will ever undertake.
