Description
The Mother of all hilly runs. Very steep rocky cliff paths, shingle, sand, mud and some tarmac if you are lucky. Day one starts aggressively with a climb up Golden Cap early on then levels out for a nice stroll along Chesil Bank. Day two takes you through the lovely sea side resort of Weymouth then it really starts: Osmington Mills, Ringstead Bay, Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove and Tyneham village finishing at Kimmeridge Bay. Day 3 is probably the wildest of the lot passing over Chapmans Pool, St Aldhelms Head and Dancing Ledge before hauling you up and over Ballard Down to tip your hat to Old Harry rocks, finishing at Shell Bay, Studland
