As a foursome we set off along the esplanade in Swanage in the drizzle to start the last day of the path.
We had to head up a hill towards Old Harry's Rock, a striking rock stack on the end of Studland. Once on the top of the cliff the walking was easy, if a little damp and we soon made it around into Studland village.
From we had a bit of woodland walking before we reached the beach. We now had a final 2.5 mile walk along the sea to South Haven Point. This was a great way to end the walk, being as close to the sea as possible, and also to walk with Mum, Melze and Liddie. The beach was really nice, with soft sand and gorse bushes and then dunes behind.
A monument marked the end of SWCP, and we met Harry there and celebrated with champers!
It's been a long 7 weeks, but at the same time it's gone really quickly, I'll be back on the blog soon with some stiff about the aftermath.
Thanks everyone for all the support, donations, company on the way, free beds for the night etc etc I honestly would have struggled without it!!!
