Hiking

Berry Head is a dramatic headland with a lighthouse and a Napoleonic Fort. The area is rich in wildlife, including birds such as cirl bunting, guillemot, fulmar, greenfinch, and peregrine falcon, as well as adder, greater horseshoe bat, and myriad species of butterfly and wildflower. The cliffs are home to the largest guillemot colony to be found along the south coast of England.
