Golden Cap
Golden Cap is the highest point on the south coast of England, its distinctive sandstone summit blazing amber above the sea near Charmouth in Dorset. The views from the top are breathtaking โ the Jurassic Coast stretching away in both directions, the sea glittering below, and the green hills of the Dorset AONB rolling inland. The climb is rewarding, and the sense of space at the summit is unforgettable.
