Heavens Gate shorter evening walk

Dorset WALX Festival - Dorset WALX Festival

Overview

A short but very sweet evening walk that provides views of Purbeck, Poole harbour , the isle of White and even Portland. A gentle climb to the cliff path and an optional ancient barrow will open up a breathtaking panorama. Its then downhill all the way back to the car park and the chance to meet up with other walkers and the HQ team in the Scott arms pub where you can savour a drink with views or opt to eat ( although best to book if you fancy doing that)
