Come for a walk with me - from the Dorset village of Langton Matravers (near Swanage) via the Priest Way and then down to Dancing Ledge (and the South West Coast Path).
Dancing Ledge is a natural shelf of flat rock jutting out into the sea. "Some say Dancing Ledge is so named because of the way the water seems to ‘dance’ over the flat rock at certain tides; others say it’s because the area is just the right size for a ballroom. It has also become known as an unusual wild swimming location due to the tidal pool that was blasted out of the ledge by quarrymen in the early 1900s for local school children to learn to swim" (www.swanage.co.uk/dancing-ledge/).
This walk illustrates the stunning, rugged beauty, the quiet and peaceful tranquility, the wild flower meadows and rare bird life, the sweeping greenery, the ancient footpaths, the mild exertion. No traffic. No words. No music. Just the sounds and sights of the trail...
