Purbeck Walks

Purbeck is, in the minds of many people, the jewel in Dorset’s crown. The twin ridges of the Chalk and the Portland and Purbeck limestones are flanked by fertile vales; it is a landscape that has been worked for thousands of years. Combine this fascinating history with a stunning coastline and quaint, ancient villages and you have a region perfect for walkers of all ages, abilities and interests.

This book provides a selection of delightful walks that will help you enjoy all these aspects of Purbeck’s beauty. Most are fairly short, easily managed in 2-3 hours or less by anyone reasonably fit. There are colour photographs of many locations and suggestions for things to do and places to eat and drink.
