This guidebook describes 30 walking routes along the Devon-Dorset
coast. The majority of the routes hug the shoreline between Torbay
and Swanage, while others venture inland on the Dorset Downs. The
walks range in length from 3 to 20 miles (5 to 33km) and are
suitable for most walkers, with shorter routes alongside plenty of
more challenging, full-day hikes. As well as detailed descriptions
for every walk, accompanied by OS maps, there are details on
available parking, points of interest along the way and advice on
the terrain covered. The guide has been divided into areas: Devon's
Red Beds, the Lias, Chesil Beach, Chalk walks (Lulworth and inland)
and the Isle of Purbeck. The geological descriptions are
accompanied by strata diagrams, geological timelines, explanations
of the creation of the various sedimentary rocks along the coast,
and discussion of how and why the various formations formed
millennia ago. The incredible - yet readable - detail brings these
walks and the landscape alive. The Jurassic Coast of Devon and
Dorset, stretching between Exeter and Bournemouth, is a geological
wonderland. Natural wonders like Chesil Beach, Durdle Door and
fossils so numerous you'll be tripping over them, combine with
southern England's rolling Downs, tiny villages, beaches and sunny
summers to provide a stunning and awe-inspiring landscape to
explore.
