Great Wessex Way - Bridport to Sherborne Link

Dorset

This alternative to a coastal Lyme Regis finish of the Great Wessex Way provides a 3 day route from Bridport into the little walked West Dorset countryside. This is the Far From The Madding Crowd country of Thomas Hardy with literary associations never far away with such places as Beaminster and Evershot. The route crosses the highest point in Dorset before finishing at the Abbey in Sherborne, one of the county’s most picturesque towns.
