The Dorset stretch of the South West Coast Path reads 185 million years of rock in a few days’ walking. You start at Lyme Regis, hunt fossils on the shingle at Charmouth, then climb Golden Cap, at 190m the highest cliff on England’s south coast. Further east come the 13km shingle bank of Chesil Beach, the swannery at Abbotsbury, the limestone arch of Durdle Door and the near-circular bay at Lulworth Cove. Walking runs from mid-March to October.
