Overview

This walk takes us from Dorchester, Brewery Square to Winterborne Came via Maxgate (home of Thomas Hardy) and on to Sutton Poyntz where we will stop for lunch by the village pond. After lunch we head south through Preston to pick up the South West Coast Path to Weymouth. There will be time for an ice cream at Weymouth before catching the train back to Dorchester. We can use group save, so the single fare will be £4.10
