Golden Cap
Recently featured in the Ramblers’ Top 50 walking routes to Britain’s best views, Golden Cap is the highest sea cliff in Southern England at 191 metres. Walk through Langdon wood (great in April/May for bluebells) and up to the top for jaw-dropping views of Charmouth and down to Lyme Regis. The stretch of coast between Lyme Regis and Bridport has over 25 miles of paths to explore and traces almost 185 million years of the Earth's history - so there's plenty to explore.
