Description

The bracing New Year walk along the magnificent beach at Studland Bay is a perfect basset walk with no restrictions, fresh air and sea views. It is ideal for owners and their hounds to renew acquaintances and to make new friends, so why don't you join us this year?

Meet at 1.00pm at the National Trust car park close to the cafe at Knoll Beach.

The walk will start promptly at 1.30pm so that we can get back to cafe in good time for tea (it closes at 4pm during the winter months).

Description

Studland – forming the southern half of the entrance to Poole Harbour, it is an area of grass covered dunes, heath and scrub. At the harbour entrance is the small Shell Bay with about 1km of sandy beach. The shore-line continues southwards to the main beach – a broad stretch of sand some 3km in length, forming the western shore of Studland Bay. The southernmost end of the bay is marked by chalk cliffs leading to Handfast Point and Old Harry Rock (a chalk sea-stack) from where there is a gentle ascent onto Ballard Down.

Studland is a popular venue for Club organised basset hound walks, often in the bracing January air.
