Purbeck Way
Description
This beautiful walk takes you from Wareham to Swanage giving splendid views of the Purbeck Hills and the Dorset coast.
The route starts with a lovely waterside stretch along the River Frome from Wareham. You then enter Stoborough Heath where you will pass the Blue Pool - a flooded, disused clay pit. Shortly after you arrive at the pretty village of Corfe Castle with its ruined 10th century
castle
of the same name. The path then leads you through Corfe Common and onto the stunning Dorset coast where you join the South West Coast Path. The final coastal section takes you past the beautiful Chapman's Pool, through
Durlston Country Park
to the finish point at Swanage.
