Route/Trail notes

A detailed description of the walk!

From the toilets at the junction of the two roads follow the coast path East out to the point where you will find yourself looking over Old Harry Rocks and across to Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight. Next follow the coast along then start heading up Ballard Down rather than down to Swanage. Get to the summit of Ballard Down then backtrack to the main track junction and continue Northeast down to a road which will continue North back to Watery Lane which you follow back to the start.
