A wonderful narrow strip of woodland follows a stream from Penn Hill all the way to coast at Branksome Chine Beach. On the way, you'll pass through the Branksome Chine Gardens and the beautiful All Saints parish Church. This route can get a little muddy after rains, so bring a decent pair of shoes along with you.
