Overview

This is a special walk as Louise has a significant birthday the day after it takes place. It is a figure-of-eight walk which includes hills and a section of coast walking. The hillier section will include Dowsborough hill fort and Black Hill while the second part heads for Kilve for a section of coast walking before returning inland to follow an attractive path below the higher ground. On our return to the start for the lunch stop Louise will reveal some goodies to mark her imminent birthday.
