The first stone of Corfe Castle was laid more than 1,000 years ago and since then it has been at the centre of battles, plots and mysteries. It has been a treasury, military garrison, royal residence and family home. On this one-day hike, we'll discover this iconic medieval skyscraper standing 21 metres tall, on the top of a 55-metre-high hill.

On our way, we'll see many lovely bays and beaches and enjoy excellent views of the Isle of Portland, which was host of the sailing events of the 2012 Olympics. Most of the route follows the cliff-top trail, with stunning panoramic views of sweeping bays, folded cliffs and the sea.

Then join us on a day hike to the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty! We'll walk south to north, taking in all the main summits of the Malvern Ridge. This is a difficult hike with lots of ascents and descents. However, all our efforts will be well-rewarded by the dramatic scenery!\n\nRising abruptly from the flat lands of the Vale of Severn in the east and from the rolling hills of Herefordshire in the west, the Malvern Hills reach 425 metres at their highest point, Worcestershire Beacon. The spectacular landscapes and a wealth of ecological, historical and geological gems make them a unique destination. Did you know that at about 700 million years old, the rocks that form the Malvern Hills are some of the oldest in the UK?\n\nThe lofty hill range of the Malvern has attracted local tribes since prehistoric times. The summits offered good vantage points and were ideal for defence in troubled times. We'll pass the impressive ramparts of the Iron Age hill forts of British Camp and Midsummer Hill, thought to be over 2,000 years old. We'll also visit the famous man-made Hermit's Cave (also known as Clutter's Cave), cut out of the ancient rock at some unknown date.\n\nOur hike will finish at Great Malvern, which was a popular spa town retreat for both the Georgians and the Victorians. For centuries, the Malvern Hills have been well-known for their health-giving spring waters.

For our ancestors, marking the passage of time was essential. As winter brought darker days and colder nights, people would have longed for the return of light and warmth. **Stonehenge’s precise alignment with the solstice sunrise** is no coincidence – it may well have been created to celebrate this powerful turning point in the year, when the sun begins its journey back toward longer days.\n\nDuring the Winter Solstice, music, dancing, singing and centuries-old rituals fill the air. 🥁🎶 The sunrise is welcomed with hopes of renewal, rebirth and good energy. Many come simply to embrace the peaceful, mystical atmosphere and witness the moment together.\n\nIt’s also **one of the only times you can stand right among the sacred stones and even touch them**. The stone circle opens to the public just twice a year – during the Winter and Summer Solstices. On any other day, Stonehenge is roped off and can only be viewed from around 10 metres away. 🚧\n\nAnd the best part? Entry during these rare solstice celebrations is **completely free** – while on a normal day, visiting Stonehenge costs around £30.\n\nSee a BBC article about last year's event:\nhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckg349e4q22o\n\n**ITINERARY**\n\n**03:30** Meet outside Hotel Novotel London West, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (a five-minute walk from Hammersmith Station)\n**03:45** Sharp departure\n**06:00** Free time next to Stonehenge\n**08:04** Sunrise\n**09:15** Meet next to the minibus for departure\n**11:30** London, Hammersmith\n\n**WHAT TO BRING**\n\n* Please wear sensible footwear – the car park and area around Stonehenge are grassy fields and can be uneven underfoot\n* Warm, waterproof clothing – please note that large umbrellas are not permitted during the Solstice\n* Small torch for walking to the stone circle\n* Small ground sheet and/or blanket\n* Food and drinks to keep you fuelled throughout the morning\n\n**PROHIBITED ITEMS**\n\n* Large bags – only small bags (approximately 30cm x 25cm x 15cm) are permitted, in line with current security measures.

The cliffs of this breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Site hold thousands of fossils from marine reptiles that swam in Jurassic seas around 200 million years ago. You might have explored Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door before – and while they’re undeniably iconic landmarks – the best places to discover fossils lie further along this ancient coastline. And that’s exactly where we’re heading this weekend – to the UK’s fossil capital, Lyme Regis! Winter offers the ideal conditions for fossil hunting, with stormy seas and seasonal rainfall exposing new fossils along the coastline.\n\nWe’ll start the day with a walk to the spectacular [Ammonite Pavement](https://maps.app.goo.gl/cHTxhWRHw2GbRASD8) on Monmouth Beach. Here, the remains of thousands of ammonites – the ancient spiral-shelled sea creatures 🌀 – are beautifully embedded in the limestone ledge, revealed at low tide. According to the Natural History Museum, this remarkable fossil ledge is the only one of its kind in the world – nowhere else features so many large ammonites, some reaching up to 70 centimetres in diameter! And it’s not just the big fossils you’ll see! With a bit of patience and luck, you’ll also have the chance to find smaller treasures to take home – including ammonite, belemnite and crinoid fossils scattered along the shore. Afterwards, we’ll head for lunch at one of the charming cafés by the 13th-century harbour, known as The Cobb.\n\nFinally, to round off the day, we’ll take a 3-kilometre hike to climb Golden Cap – the highest point on the south coast of England, rising to 191 metres. It gets its colour (and name) from the warm yellow sandstone at the top of the cliff. From the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views stretching across the Jurassic Coast in both directions – a truly unforgettable finale to our prehistoric adventure!\n\n**DIFFICULTY & EQUIPMENT**\n\nThis trip is suitable for beginners. Please wear sturdy footwear (hiking boots), as the beach surface is primarily shingle, pebbles and large rocks.\n\n**ITINERARY**\n\n**07:45** Meet outside Hotel Novotel London West, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (a five-minute walk from Hammersmith Station)\n**08:00** Sharp departure\n**11:30-14:15** Walk to the Ammonite Pavement on Monmouth Beach and fossil hunting\n**14:15-15:15** Free time for lunch and to explore fossil and souvenir shops in Lyme Regis (recommended: [The Lyme Fossil Shop](https://maps.app.goo.gl/P2jLgb1JTzL1Uzvn8), [The Old Forge Fossil Shop](https://maps.app.goo.gl/FtNkzZ4PTbSt1EUp6))\n**15:30-16:30** Hike to Golden Cap (191m) - the highest point on the south coast of England (difficulty: [Easy](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BMjvqhAAdSeCdyzLPHs0z04_e2TiKdci/view?usp=sharing), distance: 3km, ascent: 100m)\n**16:30** Departure\n**20:00** London, Hammersmith\n\n**TRANSPORT**\n\nAs on most of our trips, we'll travel in a comfortable 16-seater minibus.\n\n**SAFETY**\n\nThis hike is led by an experienced, Outdoor First Aid qualified hike leader.\n\n**BOOKING**\n\nPlease RSVP and pay by bank transfer to the account below, leaving your Meetup name and the name of the trip as a reference (e.g. John Jurassic):\n\nBusiness Account Name: London Social Hiking Limited\nSort Code: 20-17-20\nAccount Number: 63116514\n\nWe'll let you know by changing your status to ‘Paid’ as soon as the payment is cleared.

The trail will take us to the wild and rugged Bradgate Park, with dramatic rocky outcrops and gnarled old oak trees, many of which are over 500 years old. Today, the medieval park is home to a 550-head herd of red and fallow deer, which roam freely. This is an excellent opportunity to get up close to them and take many amazing photos! 📸\n\nOn this hike, we'll visit two fantastic viewpoints with spectacular panoramic views. First, we'll climb to the iconic 18th-century folly of Old John Tower (212 metres), the highest point of Bradgate Park. Then, to the summit of Beacon Hill (248 metres), which is the second highest point in Leicestershire.\n\nHaving enjoyed some great hiking, we'll head to Nottingham's Christmas Market to soak up the wonderful festive atmosphere! We can warm up with a nice glass of mulled wine, sample delicious local foods, browse the extensive stalls for unique gift ideas or take a ride on the 32-metre Observation Wheel, enjoying breath-taking views of Nottingham. There is something to suit everyone's taste! You'll have time to walk to the famous Robin Hood Statue and Nottingham Castle, where the legendary outlaw was kept before he eventually managed to escape to Sherwood Forest, his hiding place.\n\n**DISTANCE & DIFFICULTY**\n\nDistance: 7 miles (11km).\nAscent: 350m.\nDifficulty: [Easy](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BMjvqhAAdSeCdyzLPHs0z04_e2TiKdci/view).\n\n**ITINERARY**\n\n**07:45** Meet outside Hotel Novotel London West, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (a five-minute walk from Hammersmith Station)\n**08:00** Sharp departure\n**10:30-14:00** Bradgate Medieval Deer Park & Swithland Wood Walk\n**14:45-17:30** Nottingham's Christmas Market, free time for lunch and visiting Robin Hood's Statue and Nottingham Castle\n**17:30** Departure\n**20:30** London, Hammersmith\n\n**TRANSPORT**\n\nAs on most of our trips, we'll travel in a comfortable 16-seater minibus.\n\n**SAFETY**\n\nThis hike is led by an experienced, Outdoor First Aid qualified hike leader.\n\n**BOOKING**\n\nPlease RSVP and pay by bank transfer to the account below, leaving your Meetup name and the name of the trip as a reference (e.g. John Nottingham):\n\nBusiness Account Name: London Social Hiking Limited\nSort Code: 20-17-20\nAccount Number: 63116514\n\nWe'll let you know by changing your status to ‘Paid’ as soon as the payment is cleared.

He always dreamed of escaping the small-town life of his parents' fish-and-chip shop, moving to London, and becoming a journalist. And, after five years in the city, his career isn't exactly awful, and his relationship with pretentious Tobbs isn't exactly unfulfilling. Certainly his limited-edition Dolly Parton vinyls and many (maybe too many) house plants are hitting the spot. But his world is flipped upside down when a visit to the local clinic reveals that Tobbs might not have been exactly faithful. In fact, Tobbs claims they were never operating under the \"heteronormative paradigm\" of monogamy to begin with. Oh, and Danny's flatmates are unceremoniously evicting him because they want to start a family. It's all going quite well.\n\nNewly single and with nowhere to live, Danny is forced to move in with his best friend, Jacob, a flamboyant nonbinary artist whom he's known since childhood, and their eccentric group of friends living in an East London \"commune.\" What follows is a colorful voyage of discovery through modern queer life, dating, work, and lots of therapy--all places Danny has always been too afraid to fully explore. Upon realizing just how little he knows about himself and his sexuality, he careens from one questionable decision (and man) to another, relying on his inscrutable new therapist and housemates to help him face the demons he's spent his entire life trying to repress. Is he really fine, after all?\n\nPurchase the book here:\n\n[Amazon Link](https://amzn.eu/d/67kfANL)\n\nAt the end of the meeting we will set the next book, based on ideas and feedback from the group, giving everyone two months to read the book.
