POLITICS Kingcombe Meadows Favourite - 13 miles (for shorter versions there’s the obvious pinchpoint in the middle of the route - the Jubilee Trail joins the two sides and you can enjoy the full route as two shorter walks ) This is a beautiful and varied walk through Dorset’s stunning AONB, covering some ancient and untouched parts of the county - it’s one of the most ‘Dorset’ of our Dorset walks. The route covers woodland, protected nature reserves and holloways. If you’ve never visited Kingcombe Meadows, it’s a wonderful step back in time with flower rich grassland, ancient hedgerows, rough pasture and wet woodlands, almost untouched by artificial fertilisers and pesticides, with a handy cafe & water point at the car park. Definitely worth a visit and explore.

The wonderful valley sitting between South Poorton and Loscombe Nature Reserves. The climb up is lung-burstingly STIFF - but the view is definitely worth it.
