Description
Book SynopsisHere is a collection of 20 tried and tested circular walks throughout Dorset ranging in length between 3 to 6 miles. They include crucial dog factors such as livestock, stiles and roads, with warnings in advance when a lead is necessary and when it's safe to run free. Dorset's open landscape is ideal for dogs who like to run around and explore. The routes cater for a variety of interests. There are picture postcard villages like Milton Abbas; echoes of Dorset's past such as at Badbury Rings and Corfe; plus walks along the majestic coastline that include Old Harry Rocks and Cesil beach.
