This walk takes us up to Heaven’s Gate, which for many is the ultimate sunset viewpoint. From the car park, we’ll enjoy a gentle incline to the coastline overlooking Kimmeridge, with far-reaching views across the landscape—and, if we’re lucky, a truly spectacular sunset.

Bring some light refreshments and something to sit on, so we can pause for a while, soak up the views, and enjoy good company.

On our return, we’ll pass a woodland area known at this time of year for its beautiful display of bluebells.
