contents We give the first tractable and systematic examples of nontrivial higher digraph homotopy groups. To do this we define relative digraph homotopy groups and show these satisfy a long exact sequence analogous to the relative homotopy groups of spaces. We then define digraph suspension and Hurewicz homomorphisms and show they commute with each other. The existence of nontrivial digraph homotopy groups then reduces to the existence of corresponding groups in the degree 1 path homology of digraphs.
