Beautiful landscape, perfect for lovely, nature-based hikes.

DO NOT WALK THIS ROUTE in shorts in the summer. There’s a 2km stretch. Fully overgrown with nettles & brambles.. Wife and I stung so badly we needed a trip to the chemist afterward.. LONG TROUSERs only.. & then to be honest.. I wouldn’t bother..

185 Million Years of Earth's History: The 95-mile stretch of coastline, from Orcombe Point in Exmouth to Old Harry Rocks near Swanage, exposes a continuous sequence of rocks spanning the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods of the Mesozoic Era. This makes it the only place on Earth where such a vast and sequential record of geological time is easily accessible.

a good view from here to understand the defensive position over the river Frome flood plain

very good view point to understand better the engineering of the Saxon earthen walls

very beautiful historic church with many interesting things to see especially the font and stained glass windows.

one of the best preserved Saxon churches in the south west of England containing the effigy of Lawrence of Arabia by Eric Kennington.

This early Iron Age hillfort, taken over by the Romans when they invaded, has double and triple ramparts. The parallel double ramparts on the east and west flanks are connected along the northern border and are unmistakably visible. Because the cliff face acted as defence, it is probable that there were never ramparts along the southern end. Hut circles are visible within the interior of the fort. During a minor excavation in 1939 fragments of Iron Age pottery, as well as sling-stones and bones were found in a pit near the western entrance. Subsequent landslides have revealed the floor of the hillfort. The continual ground disturbances at the southern fringe increase the possibility of further archaeological finds. However, the twin hazards of the cliff erosion and the possibility of unexploded military shells from the Lulworth Ranges command extreme caution.
