    Lulworth army range walk so beware of range opening times and also gate closing time at Tyneham.

    Lots of steep climbs but in my view, you are rewarded by some of the finest vistas on the Jurassic coast. Worbarrow, Lulworth and Mupe Bay all look incredible from these heights. Plus views stretching to both Portland and beyond Kimmeridge and over Poole harbour.

    This route takes in the fossil forest at Lulworth, and a visit to the secluded Mupe Bay beach, We took the easy but longer route back up the track onto Bindon Hill but you can head straight up the steep path if you wanted a shorter but harder climb at Mupe Bay.

    We also didn't fancy the steep decent back into Worbarrow after a long walk so took the alternative longer but easy decent back to Tyneham.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
