The whole route involves doing 22 kilometers, but there are also more relaxed options. Among these alternatives, a good option is to opt for the path to Cuckmere Heaven , which allows you to walk along the river until you reach the coast guard cabins .

You can also get to the beach from these cabins to take a dip in the ocean waters. Apart is an ideal place to watch the waters of the river join the ocean, leaving the beach divided into two sections. However, if the tide is low, it is possible to cross to the other side of the river. If you follow this path, it is possible to continue walking along the cliffs until you reach the Beachy Head lighthouse .
