Classic Walks on Dorset's Purbeck Peninsula

4 days walking, based in Swanage

Our tour base

Blessed with a spectacular World Heritage coast, teamed with an inland landscape of majestic downland ridges, the ancient county of Dorset, and in particular the Purbeck peninsula, provides a fantastic venue for a walking break. The customary early arrival of spring should enhance an already spectacular landscape with a covering of flowers; an ideal place to spend an early Easter.

They will also take in the magnificent downland ridges of Flowers Barrow, Povington Hill, Ballard Down and Nine Barrow Down as well as the nationally significant coastal heath at Studland.
