Follows the Jurassic Coast shoreline from Hive Beach with mostly flat, accessible paths suitable for families and buggies on the main sections, though shingle beach stretches can be tricky with wheels.

Worth it for panoramic vistas stretching from Portland to Dartmoor on clear days, plus seasonal wildflowers and butterflies on the golden sandstone summit.
