The Category Poole is a subset of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. Browse through the Brief Records in the Category or look at the broader Category to find a List of the Titles of all the Entities associated with Poole which have so far been described in this Directory. Clicking on a Title will link you to the Entity's Full Record.

'Scenic Sunday rambles of 8-10 miles throughout the year in the beautiful countryside and on the coast. Convenient coach transport to and from these walks, and at the lunchtime stop. Wednesday walks of 4-8 miles throughout the year, usually accessible with public transport.'

'At any time of the year Poole and its neighbouring countryside provide some wonderful routes for walkers.'

'Tropical Gardens, Winston Churchill’s near-death, R.L. Stevenson’s House, Smugglers and Seafront.'

Working for a Round Harbour Trail  'There are now five way marked linear walks around the harbour and a sixth that will be way marked shortly. Each walk is described by a leaflet that can be bought from local tourist information offices or downloaded from the walks page of this web site where there are also another 13 circular walks highlighting some of the key points of the trail.

'The Definitive Map records the location and status of all recorded public rights of way. A Definitive Statement goes with the map and gives the start and end points and sometimes decription of the route.'

'The route I suggest is not "The Round Dorset Walk"; it is "A Round Dorset Walk". Whilst staying within the county boundary at all times, the route uses the boundary only as a reference and does not follow it slavishly, as that would mean missing out on some wonderful walking. Nor does it delve into the heartland to explore all that Dorset has to offer, for to do that would turn this walk into one of epic proportions.' ALERT Ths Website originally cited here seems no longer, so I have referenced a historical page on the LDWA Website as an alternative.

'Poole has a lot to offer for residents or visitors wishing to walk in the area. The diverse landscape offers beautiful beaches, open countryside, heathland, nature reserves, formal parks and gardens and a vibrant and historic town centre.'
