Hiking

Perched on Hambury Tout along the South West Coast Path, the limestone steps above Durdle Door offer panoramic views facing east. Looking toward Lulworth Cove, you see the perfect horseshoe bay framed by steep chalk cliffs and the sparkling English Channel. In the distance, white thatched cottages mark historic Lulworth village, while rolling Dorset downlands meet dramatic coastal drops—making this steep climb one of the Jurassic Coast's most breathtaking vantage points.
