Tyneham Village and Flower's Barrow

Loop from the abandoned village of Tyneham up to the Iron Age hillfort of Flower's Barrow on the Purbeck Hills and down to Worbarrow Bay. The area is part of an army firing range and is open only at set times (the Lulworth Range Walks), so check before you go.

Terrain

Fairly level apart from one steady climb and a steep descent. Some paths have been improved for people with limited mobility.

Dogs

Worbarrow Bay is dog-friendly all year and there is a dog-friendly pub nearby. Keep dogs close near livestock and cliff edges.
