This hike is rated as Challenging with contentious hills and has a total length of 25km (total ascension being 815 metres.) All hikers attending must be 18 years and over and in able physical condition to complete this challenge hike. This hike is NOT suitable for begginners. We encourage Trek/Fit members to bring their dogs with them as nature has just as positive impact on them too (Please see What is the Trek/Fit disclaimer form? below)

Is any hiking attire and accessories needed for this hike?

For health and safety reasons we have a Mandatory requirement for each Trek/Fit member to bring the following:

What train ticket(s) do I need to book and where is the Meet up Point?

09:54 return from London Victoria Station to Eastbourne Station, as well as an 11:00 Single from Lewes to Seaford on Saturday 10th June. We will be arriving into Lewes at 10:56 where folks who are intending to drive can meet us at the station to board the 11:00 Seaford Train. We will be returning from Eastbourne Station which your return ticket to London should cover.

We will meet at 09:30 outside Boots, inside the Station.

What does the hike cost?

Each hike is £15.00 per person (plus a booking fee by Eventbrite) to cover travel and fees for the guide. Trek/Fit operates a no refund policy on all ticket sales but we are more than happy to accommodate moving your ticket to another hike if needed (dependent on event capacity).

Can I join the hike on the day?

All attendees have to book via Eventbrite before arriving at the meeting point with the deadline being the night before (09th June). This ensures that all attendees are accounted for (for health and safety) and can be contacted if needed before, during, and after the hike. If you are not listed in Eventbrite then the guide reserves the right to refuse you joining the hike.

What if the hike is cancelled e.g. train strike, extreme weather?

Cancelling any hike is not taken lightly and the safety of our community is our highest priority. Any cancelled hike(s) will be re-scheduled and the appropriate details will be updated here on Eventbrite.

What is the Trek/Fit disclaimer form?

The Trek/Fit disclaimer form is required to be signed by each Trek/Fit member attending the hikes and ensures that you are willing to take responsibility for yourself (and any pets you bring with you) during the hike. The Disclaimer is to be acknowledged when agreeing to the terms and conditions when purchasing a ticket for this hike.
