Walk - Chapman's Pool from Worth Matravers
5.9 miles (9.4 km)
Worth Matravers Car Park - BH19 3LE Worth Matravers Car Park
Moderate - The path can be steep and slippery, and the headland is exposed if the wind is strong.
A breathtaking walk around a limestone coastline carved into dramatic caves and platforms by millions of years of erosion by the sea, and hundreds of years of human quarrying. From prehistoric times humans have lived here and exploited the cliffs and coves for a wide variety of purposes, ranging from prehistoric tools and burials through mediaeval farming to nineteenth-century smuggling. Children will love Chapman's Pool, a wonderfully wild beach where the stream joins the sea from a plunging ravine carved through high cliffs, and there is a fossil museum in the pub at Worth Matravers.
