Overview

Walking down to Ringstead Bay along the SWCP to Osmington Mills then up through Osmington to the pretty village of Sutton Poyntz with views of the nearly White Horse. A climb up to the Ridgeway on the Hardy Way then along via Powell to Holworth. Hilly and stiles and hopefully wonderful views!

Park at the east end of the long car park. It is free for National Trust members or £6 and the machine is by the entrance to the car park.
