The Weares and Church Ope Cove

Portland walks

Easy – From the viewing point there are a few steps up to join the level railway line. The Weares path is steep at the start, uneven and rocky. There are over 100 steps back up to the viewing area!
This short walk around Church Ope Cove and the Weares explores the unique landscape of the east coast, altered by landslips and quarrying but now being reclaimed and softened by nature. It is a very special area for wildlife particularly the smaller plants; mosses and lichens.
