Chichester Harbour Coastal Hiking Trail

Back by popular demand, the Chichester Harbour Hike is one of our most-loved events and for good reason. Taking you around the stunning Chidham Peninsula and along peaceful harbour-side paths, this route is packed with some of the most spectacular views in the South.

As you walk, you'll enjoy sweeping panoramas across Chichester Harbour, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with long-reaching vistas towards Bosham Hoe, Itchenor, East Head, and the rolling South Downs beyond.

The course is designed to immerse you in the landscape: quiet trails, coastal paths, and wildlife-rich scenery that will leave you inspired at every step. At low tide, hikers also get the unique chance to cross a short stretch of foreshore, making this an experience like no other.

Flat and friendly, the route is perfect for an early-season challenge, whether you're building confidence, looking for a mindful day outdoors, or simply wanting to enjoy the atmosphere of a great walking event. With two distances to choose from, we welcome hikers of all levels and abilities to join the adventure. As you cross the finish line, you will receive a well-earned medal, a refreshing drink, and exciting finisher's goodies.
