We are the Wessex Wanderers Railway Walks. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A walk from Upwey to Weymouth, along a section of the inland South West Coastal path, down to the pretty village of Sutton Poyntz, and onwards towards Weymouth via the coastal path. There are some rather steep ups and downs, some rather uneven and slippery paths with the possibility of mud. The spectacular views are worth the effort.
There is the option to opt out after about 5 miles or 7 miles by taking a bus into Weymouth or continuing into Bowleaze Cove/Overcombe corner and then taking a bus into Weymouth. If people wish to walk further, it is an easy walk from Overcombe corner into Weymouth.
Bring picnic lunch
Well behaved dogs on leads welcome
Stout footwear/walking boots and trekking poles if used recommended.
