It's one of the longest climbs I was able to find in South England. After you pass South Harting, the climb becomes steeper and has some double digits gradients. But it is absolutely doable, since it is only about 2 KMs long. When I did it, there was some traffic - it's on the road that leads to Chichester.... read more

A good steep climb from South Harting, which goes up steeply as soon as you turn off from the bottom. The road is busy but the surface is good. Feels like one of the few continental climbs in the area, but obviously not as long. There is an alternative climb that joins at the top, which is much quieter but the road surface is not as good.
