On the Edge: Walking the South West Coast Path with Limited Sight

A selection of images entered into the 2025 SWCP Photographer of the Year Competition introduced us to one of our valuable members, Lena Welch, and her epic challenge to walk the South West Coast Path in stages. Friends and walk supporters captured some special moments on the Jurassic Coast section with one photograph being awarded a third place in the People and Path category of the competition. We are delighted to share Lena’s journey so far.

6 Dog Walks on the South West Coast Path

Walking the Coast Path is an enjoyable experience and if you have a four-legged friend who loves to walk (and what dog doesn’t!) there is nothing more special than taking a hike with your furry companion by your side. With over 630 miles of South West Coast Path to explore we have highlighted six circular walks (one for every 100 miles of the Trail) that are dog friendly because they take in a beach or pub that welcomes them – so plenty of excuses (if you needed them) to get out and explore the Path with your pooch.

Pawesome winter walkies on the Path

The clocks have gone back and the weather is turning colder, but even so, many of us are dreaming of weekend beach-time. It’s the time of year when dog owners and their four-legged friends can access beaches, and with that comes a plethora of winter coastal walkies to be enjoyed. We caught up with our furry volunteer, Rudy the SWCP Ambassadog (@cornishrudy on Instagram), and his owner Laura to find out which routes they love best.
