A flat hard path leads from the Hiker Cafe around the base of Hengistbury Head to The Beach Hut Restaurant & Cafe. At the end of the path at the sand spit the path becomes packed gravel. Sadly access to the beach is really hard with a wheelchair/buggy.
This route is taken by the landtrain which has a carriage with a ramp that can accomodate 1 wheelchair for the 10 min run one way.
There are great views across to Christchurch & Mudeford.
