Explore Brighton city centre with two self-guided heritage walks with a treasure hunt theme. Discover Brighton's "hidden treasures" whilst having a fun day out with family and friends!
Brighton is a must-visit city for most people. Sitting by the sea with its famous pebble beach, it appeals as much to those looking for a seaside delight as those looking for excellent shops and fascinating sights. For a start there's the famous oriental Royal Pavilion, Regency architecture, and a Victorian aquarium. Add to that the Brighton Wheel, beachfront sports and events, and the remarkable Lanes - a paradise of boutique shops around a maze of alleyways - and you have something for everyone.

1. Train Station to Royal Pavilion - 1.5 miles / 2.4 kms
On this walk of discovery you’ll first explore North Laine – Brighton’s bohemian and cultural quarter with criss-cross streets, 400 independent retailers and colourful street art – a melodious mix of ethnic, exotic and funky. Next meander round Brighton’s famous Lanes – pedestrianised shopping streets, with a touch of class! End your walk at the delightful Pavilion Gardens and the truly stunning Royal Pavilion.
1.5 hoursOK, with a small detour described to avoid steps
2. Royal Pavilion to Palace Pier - 1 mile / 1.6 kms
From the magnificent Royal Pavilion this walk starts by exploring more of The Lanes – quirky and unusual shops, with lots of inviting places to eat and drink. Then you exit the Old Town to pass through delightful gardens with historical connections, before arriving at the seafront, and Brighton’s famous Palace Pier, and all the fun of the fair!

"What a great way to explore Brighton! From the busy station its all downhill (literally and metaphorically) to the sea, discovering so much of Brighton's history with its unique shopping streets and lanes, and the astounding Pavilion in beautiful gardens. We could never have found out so much if we'd tried to do it alone. A really enjoyable day out! Thanks."
"Thanks so much for sorting this so quickly. We managed to get out with the kids on the one dry afternoon of half term and learnt loads about Brighton despite living here on/off for nearly 30 years!
It's brilliant and we're thinking of doing some uk city breaks and checking out your other guides.
Thanks again."
"Hi, We did the Brighton booklet today and I just wanted to say how great my husband and I found it. We have been to Brighton many, many times (normally shopping or eating) but never knew about alot of the history etc of Brighton. Thank you it was a fabulous day out and we can’t wait to do the Canterbury one next. Kind Regards"
