Explores Boscombe's creative quarter through street art, sculptures and cultural landmarks on flat, paved urban streets. Perfect for families with buggies and dogs welcome on leads. The self-guided trail showcases vibrant murals and community art installations across this regenerated seaside neighbourhood, offering an easy cultural walk that connects the high street to the seafront. Accessible for all abilities with plenty of cafés en route.

Two Bays Way

Connects Christchurch Harbour to Poole Harbour across varied coastal and heathland terrain with some moderate inclines through Bourne Valley and around Hengistbury Head. Suitable for older children but not buggy-friendly due to uneven paths, sandy sections, and occasional steps. Dogs welcome throughout. Delivers stunning harbour views, diverse wildlife habitats, and a mix of woodland, heath, and clifftop scenery that showcases Dorset's coastline without the crowds of busier routes.

Bournemouth Coast Path

Follows the sweeping seafront along Bournemouth's sandy beaches, mostly flat on promenades and wooden boardwalks with a few gentle slopes at clifftop sections. Perfect for families with buggies and young children – accessible, paved throughout with plenty of facilities, play areas and ice cream stops. Dogs welcome year-round on most sections (seasonal restrictions on main beach areas May-September). Offers classic seaside views across Poole Bay, Victorian pier landmarks, and easy access to cafés
