Mindfulness Walk

Explore Corfe Castle before the crowds arrive, guided by one of our trained team members on a mindful walk through the ruins and along the River Corfe.

Your journey begins at the National Trust car park, where our guided walk leads you along the tranquil pathway beside the River Corfe and the ruins of West Mill.
