Guided Walks in Dorset - National Trust

How do I book my place?

All walks require advance booking (with the exception of the Hardy Literary Landscape Walk, which allow you to just turn up on the day). You can book online or in person at locations such as the Lyme Regis Shop or the Hive Beach National Trust Hut. If you need help with booking, please email [email withheld].

Walk Difficulty & Facilities

Some walks can be long and challenging. Most routes do not have access to toilets, cafés, or other facilities, so please come prepared. Often it is the remoteness of the places we walk that makes them to special and beautiful.

Can I bring my dog?

Dogs are welcome on most walks but must be kept on a lead at all times. Dogs are not allowed on the Eggardon Foraging Walk due to livestock and the slow-paced nature of the event.

If a walk includes a visit to a National Trust property (such as Hardy’s Cottage, Max Gate, or Clouds Hill), please note that dogs are not allowed inside the houses but are welcome in the gardens.
