The Poole Harbour Trails comprise six linear walks that enable a complete circuit to be made of Poole Harbour on the south coast of England, which is said to be the second largest natural harbour in the world.




Description


Poole Harbour is "a national treasure and provides access to some stunning countryside and woodland" as well as "wonderful views". The harbour and its environs are rich in wildlife and its towns and villages are "set in some of the best walking areas in South West England."
