View from Amberley Mount

Highlight • Summit

The summit of Amberley Mount is around 660 feet (200 m) above sea level, and offers spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. On a clear day, you can see as far as the Isle of Wight to the south and the North Downs to the north. It's one of the toughest climbs on the South Downs Way (from west to east).

There's a gate off the main path leading to an open grassy area where you can stop for a picnic and admire the views over Amberley Brooks.

View from Amberley Mount

Highlight • Viewpoint

Amberley Mount is a very steep off-road climb if you are travelling on the South Downs Way from west to east, which is generally the preferred direction for the long distance route. It has fantastic views to the north and west, overlooking Amberley and the Arun Valley, so worth the effort on a good day.
