The view of giant is best from the opposite hill. When I took my photo the chalk was very dull so viewing wasn’t brilliant but I know they restore him every now and again so he should be bright again.The climb up past the giant is very steep so if hiking poles would be a great addition and grippy footwear 👟

fabulous landscaped gardens at all times of year, especially the autumn

This provides a perfect viewpoint from which to observe the large hill figure of the Cerne Giant. It's at just the right distance, not too far, to see the figure in its entirety.

'Abbot's Porch' is an architectural feature of historical significance and was the original gateway to Cerne Abbey. Throughout its history, Cerne Abbey played a vital role in the local community and the region as a whole. It served not only as a religious centre but also as a place of education, charity, and culture. An honesty box, located at the entrance, asks for £2.50 donation to help towards the upkeep of the site.

The River Cerne gracefully winds its way through Cerne Abbas, meandering down the valley for about 10 miles before eventually converging with the River Frome at Dorchester. It has earned the endearing title of the "friendly river" due to the consistent bond it has shared with the villages lining its course across history. Along its tranquil journey, numerous significant landmarks have been thoughtfully erected in proximity to its banks.

As djcwey2402 says this is a much easier going now and even a few less gates. Used in winter after a bit of rain and it was fine - it would have involved a bit of walking in the old state.

lovely view along the Cerne Valley and to the famous chalk hill cut figure of the Giant
