We often go up here or to the Winfrith side with our dogs. The heathland is beautiful no matter when time of year you are there. If you have dogs, please make sure you keep an eyes open for the wild horses and cattle as the dogs could spook them. Also look out for wild birds nesting as the dogs could disturb the nests.
