A 4 stage Multi placed in Cannon Hill Plantation near Wimborne.
Length of walk from car back to car is aprox 2k .
The walk route starts along a wide gravel track,then along narrower paths that can be muddy after rain. There's a moderately steep ,short climb up to stage 2. If the pines aren't too tall there is a view northwards from there. The path from stage 3 to stage 4 is quite narrow. There are glimpses to the distant Purbeck Hills from around stage 3.
The cache title comes from the popularity of the area with dog walkers.(Nearly everytime we walk there at least one dog walker stops to pass the time of day even though we don't have a dog ).
The roar bit of cache title may begin to come apparent near stage 4.
