Our Queer Hiking Group for queer migrants and queer people of colour heads to a new trail each month, and for July, we’re heading to South Coast!
On Saturday 10th August, we’ll be running our next organised small group hike along the Seaford Head, the Seven Sisters, and up to Beachy Head - a 10-mile coastal walk that runs alongside some of the most beautiful chalk cliffside scenery in the UK.
This is a challenging hike, and there are successive ascents and descents along the cliff path, some of which have a steep gradient. This is also a very exposed path, meaning if it is wet, windy, or very sunny, we will have little cover.
The hike will take around 6 hours, with time allocated for breaks and lunch, although we will be leaving from London earlier to account for the longer travel time. Once again, we’ll be led by an experienced hiker and mountain leader trainee.
Travel to and from London is covered, but places are limited, so please sign up!
This event is being run by The Love Tank, as part of the Maureen Project.
