Lyme Regis (2.6 miles)
Awash with history, Lyme Regis is an integral part of Dorset’s famous Jurassic Coast; guided fossil hunting tours are a popular way to discover the rich geological history of the area. Literary history is equally important to Lyme Regis; the unique harbour, known as ‘The Cobb’ was immortalised by John Fowles in his novel ‘The French Lieutenant’s Woman’ and Thomas Hardy set many of his novels in the area.

The Wessex Ridgeway (2.6 miles)
The Wessex Ridgeway follows an historic trade route between Marlborough in Wiltshire down to the coast at Lyme Regis. At 137 miles long, we suggest you pick just a small section to walk…

The Jurassic Coast (4.3 miles)
It would be remiss not to mention the pleasures of walking the Jurassic Coast here; a good way to combine a little exercise with a history lesson is to join one of the organised Fossil Walks from Charmouth.

Seaton (Devon) (3.3 miles)
Once a thriving port, Seaton is now one of Devon’s most traditional seaside resorts with working open top trams trundling along the estuary. Part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast, Seaton is gripped by deep red cliffs that exhibit millions of years of geological history. The town is also bordered by marshes and wetlands that are home to a wide variety of bird species and many visitors arrive festooned with binoculars hoping to spot a rarity.
