Dancing Ledge, England
Dancing Ledge is part of the Jurassic Coast near Langton Matravers in the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset, England. Dancing Ledge is so called because at certain stages of the tide when the waves wash over the horizontal surface, the surface undulations cause the water to bob about making the ledge appear to dance.

The Walk to Dancing Ledge
A crisp December day, the sun low in the sky and we walked to Dancing Ledge along the old Spyway and then on to The Square and Compass at Worth Matravers. If you haven't tried this walk, it's well worth making the effort. Very muddy and slippery underfoot. About six miles altogether.

To Dancing Ledge & Beyond - Part One - www.walkingwithdericandgeoff.com
Geoff tells Deric that they are going on an easy walk. He was telling lies. This is the walk that made deric realise that walking is not quite the 'sitting in anarmchair with a glass of wine' activity that he thought it was. Follow the two two intrepid walkers as they climb cliffs, hills and the roughest terrain they have ever encountered.
