7 Days Wild Camping and Thru-hiking on the South Downs Way | Walking from Winchester to Eastbourne

We’re on a mission to hike 14 UK National Trails and the South Downs Way was lucky number 1. Starting in the city of Winchester, where Tom and I met, studied, and got married, follow our journey to Eastbourne; a 100-mile thru-hike wild camping in rain and shine, with some impromptu accommodation stops, scary ventures through cow fields and some truly epic 360-degree views.
The South Downs Way is a well-marked trail but we used the Hiiker App to find water, towns, pubs, shops and all local amenities.

In 2020 we created our very own challenge called ‘Walk for Good’ but then Covid happened. A year later we’ve moved out of our house, into our self-built van and our Walk for Good is now back in business! Following 14 beautiful National Trails around the United Kingdom, we’re going to attempt to walk all 2422 miles and raise money for two charities: Reach (www.reach.org.uk) for upper limb difference and Mind for mental health. And we’d love it if you followed us every step of the way!
