Details

A short beautiful walk visiting two secluded beaches. The compromise is the rollercoaster style section of coast path - so expect some steep ups and downs. Don’t let this put you off though, as we’ll take our time, pausing often for breathers. It’s not a rush or a race, and no one will be left behind. If you’d like to join us but feel unsure of your ability, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and Camille will talk things through with you.

Distance: ~ 2.5 miles | 4km

Walk duration: approx 2-3 hrs including time to wild swim and enjoy a refreshment

Terrain: Some steep and uneven paths. On this walk we are rarely on the flat. The route involves "V-shaped" transitions—dropping from high clifftops down to sea level at the beaches, then climbing steeply back up.

Challenge level: Moderate / beginner plus - bare in mind this walk has some ‘rollercoaster style’ sections of up and down. We will take our time and pause for regular breathers when going up and down hill.
