    Tips

    Running

    Lyme Regis is a very pretty and interesting seaside town. The seafront has a concrete pedestrian promenade along its full length, this makes a great run if you are early/late enough to avoid the crowds.

    There are plenty of ice cream sellers or cafés if you need a refuel, but I recommend the Town Mill bakery on Coombe Street.

    Before you set out, be aware that the trail features varied terrain, including quiet roads, paved sections, and unpaved paths. You might encounter gravel, muddy stretches, steps, and narrow bridges, so choose your footwear accordingly. The moderate difficulty is largely due to elevation changes, with some steep climbs and descents that will challenge your legs. Parking is generally available in the Lyme Regis area, making it convenient for drivers. Public transport options can also get you close to the starting point, offering flexibility for your journey.

    This route stands out for its unique combination of natural beauty and historical glimpses. As you jog, you will trace the path of the River Lim, a significant natural feature of the area. Keep an eye out for historical sites such as the Town Mill, which adds a cultural layer to your outdoor experience.
