Mar 8, 2010, An invitation to explore Swanage & Purbeck & the stunning Jurassic Coast The First Purbeck Walking Festival May 3rd –May 7th 2010

The annual Swanage & Purbeck Walking Festival is now an essential event for the spring calendar for walkers of all abilities. Only 2.5 hours from London Waterloo, and a World Heritage site, the Purbecks are blessed with breathtaking scenery such as the chalk cliffs around the Studland peninsular, historic villages such as Corfe Castle, and the hidden coves of Chapman’s Pool and Kimmeridge Bay. Miles of coastal and countryside paths make for unrivalled walking, as well as bird and wildlife watching, particularly as the area is home to many rare species.

A varied programme will be running throughout the week which has been specifically designed to cater for a wide range of interests and abilities as well as giving an insight into the area’s fascinating history. Local and specialist guides will be on hand to reveal the delights and secrets of the area, and Festival participants will able to take advantage of inclusive steam rail travel on Swanage’s world famous steam railway as well as sample some of the delicious local Purbeck produce and finest ales with inclusive pub lunches in some instances.

The festival organisers have joined forces with specialist walking company HF Holidays, the UK’s leading provider of outdoor, walking and activity breaks who have been coming to the area for many years.

Alan Power chair of the hospitality association and festival co-ordinator said:

“We are absolutely delighted to have HF Holidays on-board, they have a wealth of experience, which should make the festival a great success, and which we hope will be an annual event.”
