It is no secret that my favourite place for walking is Thomas Hardy’s Wessex and here is an Index of just a few of the walks I have done. I hope to add many more to it!
1 Golden Cap – A Boxing Day Circular Walk up Golden Cap near Bridport.
2 Pilsdon Pen – A short climb up “traditionally” the highest point in Dorset
3 There’s something about Eype – a stroll from Bridport to Eype and back
4 Wessex Heights – Bulbarrow
5 A walk near Bridport – Hills and Holloways
6 Wessex Heights – Ingpen Beacon
7 Walking in Dorset – Julia Bradbury
I have also walked in stages and several sections many times the Dorset Coastal path from Lyme Regis in the West to Studland in the East; explored the Sturminster Newton and Marnhull (or do I mean Marlott?) area and know the footpaths around Dorchester, Stinsford and Bockhampton almost as well as those I take when walking near Harlington, my home village . This site also includes details of walking the Ridgeway National Trail and Walking the Pilgrims’ Way and is being continually updated as I explore further areas of our beautiful countryside.
The beautiful image of Colmer’s Hill is not mine but the work of Doug Chalk – check out his amazing work here.
