With the UK government’s proclamation to ease the country’s lockdown, many outdoor attractions and activities will reopen. For you to be able to mark down your calendars now, we’re here to tell you about it. Ready your notebook and pen to write down your destination for outdoor activities!
Jurassic Coast
Let us freshen our minds and souls with the sound of waves and let our feet be mesmerized by the sand. The lockdown makes us crave outdoor activities especially getting out there to the sea. The stunning Jurassic Coast in Dorset is the best getaway inside dramatic scenery. Famous around the world as one of the richest heritage sites for prehistoric remains, the Jurassic Coast is the area to join a fossil hunting walk.
Reasons Why To Visit Jurassic Coast
No matter if you’re a fan of the coast, countryside, or both, you’ll be fully stored with entertainment throughout your visit.
- Fossil Hunting: Coming down from the cliffs and scattered alongside the beaches, fossils are abundant here! Always be sure to stay safe when hunting; stay away from the cliff face and mudflows, only go out in the low tide and be conscious of different seaside users.
- The South West Coast Path: One of the excellent ways to recognize the scenery of the Jurassic Coast is through your foot. The South West Coast Path gives some extraordinary views, and thousands of miles of interlinking footpaths, giving you countless choices to pick out your hike, wherever points you are on the coast.
- The Jurassic Skyline: The Jurassic Skyline goes up to 174 feet. You can see Weymouth town, beach, pavilion, historic harbour, the Nothe gardens and fort, and Portland harbour from the tower. The skyline lasts 15 minutes and you can enjoy the breathtaking 360-degree view of the surrounding areas.
Mountain Hiking
We all want to see Mother Nature once again after the long and tiring lockdown aren’t we? Then the mountainous summit in Snowdonia, Wales is the answer! Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa, Welsh) is the tallest peak in Wales and England. It’s one of the most famous and prestigious attractions, and it’s worth a visit.
