The plan, elevations and route

Our plan is to walk each day along this well known path, from one B&B to the next, until we reach Lyme Regis. We will probably average about 10 miles per day.
The path follows a route that has been open for centuries; past stone circles, along chalk ridges (a few carved with giant figures), and through green valleys.

Here is a view of the elevation change over the 137 mile route:

I have found from other sources that there is over 16,000 feet of climbing and a bit more descending (ending at sea level) over the 137 mile length.


Here is the walking path route in more detail:
