This Pathfinder Guide is the ideal companion for country walks in Dorset. Clear and easy-to-follow directions are accompanied by detailed maps from Ordnance Survey, and specially commissioned photographs.

With 28 colour-coded routes to choose from, all tried and tested by seasoned walkers, and varying from extended strolls to exhilarating hikes, there is a walk to suit everyone.

Dorset must rank as one of the most unspoilt counties in England. Dominating the landscape are the chalk downs - open, sweeping, grassy uplands that stretch from the former forest lands of Cranborne Chase on the Wiltshire and Hampshire borders right across the middle of the county to the coast. The many ridge-top footpaths (including one starting from Cerne Abbas which ends with the Cerne Giant in all its glory) that cross these downs provide splendid walking and a succession of panoramic views.

The entire county is associated with Thomas Hardy, forming the inspiration for his 'Wessex' novels, which are so interwoven with the landscape of his native county, and one of the walks in this collection starts near the cottage where he was born. But the main attraction is the coast, with a host of spectacular natural features such as Chesil Beach, Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove, as well as the attractions of the Isle of Purbeck and Lyme Regis.
