Walk - Highlands End - Seatown to Charmouth
4.5 miles (7.2 km)
Highlands End Holiday Park - DT6 6AR Highlands End Holiday Park
Moderate - A rollercoaster ride of a walk, with an optional detour around the highest peak of Golden Cap for those who consider the rest of the walk to contain enough ascent and descent, this route travels high (and sometimes low!) along the edge of cliffs carved and sculpted by rain and sea over millions of years.
At the foot of the cliffs nestle treasure troves of fossils brought down by frequent rockfalls, and scientists have been able to use these to give dates to various geological events, as well as piecing together fragments of dinosaur bone to draw a picture of one of the monsters roaming here in prehistoric times. Inland there is a pastoral landscape of medieval fields and farms.
