💥Хотите узнать, на что способен человек, который остается верен своей мечте?🤩Очень на многое! Присоединяйтесь к нашей поездке в знаменитые сады Эксбери, и вы убедитесь в этом😉! В начале XX века Лайонел Натан де Ротшильд приобрел поместье в Хэмпшире, в деревне Эксбери. Казалось бы, у наследника известной банкирской семьи Ротшильдов🤘🏼 может быть только один путь — руководить банком💰(что, впрочем, Лайонел и делал после смерти отца). Однако с самого раннего детства мальчик мечтал о растениях🌿 и садоводстве🍓. Говорят, что свой первый мини сад он высадил в возрасте пяти лет🙀! Эта детская мечта вела его всю жизнь. Став владельцем поместья, Лайонел принялся за создание долгожданного сада🌳. Огромную часть своего состояния он потратил на разведение необычных видов растений и улучшение территорий поместья. Так, например, для полива была построена водонапорная башня и создана система труб протяженностью около 35 километров. В поисках красивых и редких растений🍀 Ротшильд много путешествовал, а затем тратил немалые деньги на доставку образцов в Англию. Кроме того, он постоянно спонсировал💸 экспедиции по сбору семян в такие отдаленные районы как, например, Гималаи. Лайонел вывел более тысячи гибридов своих любимых цветов🌺 — рододендрона и азалии. Сам о себе Ротшильд говорил: «Банкир по хобби — садовник по профессии». Многие новые виды растений получили общемировое признание садоводов. Например, голубая альпийская роза, которая знаменита тем, что ни одному, даже самому опытному фотографу, по загадочным причинам не удалось передать ее настоящий оттенок на снимке. В 1942 году Лайонел умер, а сад🌳 был отдан на военные нужды. Однако супруга Ротшильда не оставила дело мужа. Она ухаживала за садом в военные годы, а затем этим занялся вернувшийся с войны сын👨‍🌾. В 50-е годы сады были открыты для посещения. В начале XXI века в Эксбери была построена паровая железная дорога🚂, предназначенная для того, чтобы посетители могли прокатиться на старинном поезде, любуясь красотами садов.😍 Однако дорога оказалась гораздо популярнее, чем ожидалось, и сама превратилась в яркую достопримечательность. Она вошла в список Организации Великих Миниатюрных Железных Дорог Великобритании.☝🏼 Сегодня Сады Эксбери по праву считаются лучшими садами🌿 не только в Великобритании, но и во всем мире. Благодаря целеустремленности и кропотливому труду Лайонела Ротшильда мы можем любоваться огромной коллекцией редких растений со всего мира, стоимость которой оценивается в миллионы долларов💰. Также в нашем туре мы посетим Lepe Country Park — охраняемый государством Национальный парк🏞 дикой природы. Здесь нас ждет великолепная прогулка по красивейшим местам: живописные виды песчаного пляжа🏖, скалы🗻, окаймленные сосновыми лесами🌲, луга с дикими цветами🌺, чистейшие водоемы🏞 и исторические памятники🕴🏼. Это идеальное место для людей, желающих оказаться на лоне дикой природы и насладиться восхитительными видами на побережье Солент и остров Уайт.👍🏼 📝План поездки: 📍**07:45** **Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/WJDJWDLm2jQ2)**, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍10:00 — 14:00 [Exbury Gardens](https://www.exbury.co.uk/) ([от £6.50](https://www.exbury.co.uk/booking), бронируйте заранее на 10:00) и [паровая железная дорога](https://www.exbury.co.uk/steam-railway) ([£5.40](https://www.exbury.co.uk/booking)) 📍14:30 — 16:00 Парк на побережье Солент — Lepe Country Park 📍16:00 Отправление 📍18:30 ­London, Hammersmith ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️Аудиогид на русском ⚜️Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌Не включено: ❌Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌[Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌[Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒Что взять с собой: ☑️Воду/еду по желанию ☑️Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

Пожалуй, сложно найти человека, который бы не смотрел знаменитый фильм Стивена Спилберга про динозавров 🦕 (или хотя бы не слышал о нем). Многих людей во всем мире привлекает тема доисторических времен Земли. Ну и мы не стали исключением! Мы отправляемся на Юрское побережье, которое представляет собой береговую линию протяженностью 95 миль, включая части восточного побережье Девона и Дорсета. Сейчас сложно представить, что когда-то здесь бродили огромные рептилии 🦕. Однако многочисленные находки ученых говорят о том, что история этих мест охватывает 185 миллионов лет развития нашей планеты. Не случайно Юрское побережье было внесено в список Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО как объект, представляющий научную значимость. Находки, сделанные тут, позволили совершить открытия, которые во многом способствовали развитию палеонтологии и составлению древней картины мира. Кроме научных «красот», Юрское побережье славится своими восхитительными пейзажами, первозданной красотой и уникальными природными достопримечательностями. Самой известной из них является Durdle Door — известняковая природная арка. Конечно, аркой она стала не сразу. По мнению ученых, около 140 миллионов лет назад здесь сформировалась сеть пещер, образовавшихся в трещинах горных пород. Затем на протяжении многих тысячелетий «дизайнеры» природных ландшафтов — море, солнце и ветер — создавали это чудо природы. В самом высоком месте скала достигает 200 футов. До сих пор на известняковых породах Durdle Door можно заметить отпечатки, похожие на рябь — это окаменелости древних останков растений и животных. Вот таким непостижимым образом миллионы лет различных природных процессов привели к тому, что сегодня мы можем наблюдать фантастически красивый морской пейзаж😍! Не менее яркой достопримечательностью Юрского побережья стала Бухта Лулворт 🏞 — небольшой залив в форме подковы с идеально ровными берегами, которые сформировались в результате постепенного размыва пород. На весь мир бухта славится уникальной геологией и удивительными рельефами, а окрестные пейзажи напоминают кадры из рекламы «райских» островов. Также в нашем туре мы посетим живописный мыс «Голова летучей мыши🦇», получивший свое название в связи с тем, что у основания этой скалы находится маленькая пещера, ставшая домом для этих животных. Окруженный зелеными лугами белый меловой утес с достаточно крутым обрывом в море — сказочное зрелище! Итак, мы отправляемся в красивейшие места Великобритании, чтобы насладиться чудесами природы и познакомиться с древней историей нашей планеты. Нас ждет множество неожиданных открытий и потрясающая прогулка «по следам» динозавров. Присоединяйтесь! Может быть (кто знает!), и вам повезет сделать важную историческую находку! 📝 План поездки: 📍 **08:45 Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62)**, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍 12:00 – 14:00 [Lulworth Cove](https://www.lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/lulworth-cove/) (входит в десятку лучших мест по красоте природы в Великобритании), прогулка к [Fossil Forest](https://lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/the-fossil-forest/) и [Stair Hole](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stair_Hole) (2 км) 📍 14:00 – 15:00 Свободное время, обед в деревне [West Lulworth](https://www.dorsetguide.com/west-lulworth-village/) 📍 15:00 – 17:00 Пешая прогулка к [Man O’War Beach](https://goo.gl/maps/wCkYyXz4BgTm8MZq8), [Durdle Door](https://www.lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/durdle-door/) и меловому утесу [Bats Head](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat%27s_Head) (3 км) 📍 17:00 Отправление от [Lulworth Visitor Centre](https://lulworth.com/visit/plan-your-visit/visitor-centre/) 📍 20:00 London, Hammersmith 👣 Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️ Аудиогид на русском ⚜️ Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️ Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️ Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️ Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️ НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌ Не включено: ❌ Входные билеты: цены указаны в плане путешествия ❌ Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌ Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌ Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌ [Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌ [Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌ Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒 Что взять с собой: ☑️ Воду/еду по желанию ☑️ Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️ Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️ Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

The **Seven Sisters** are a spectacular series of gleaming white chalk cliffs shaped over thousands of years by natural erosion processes. Erosion has since created an “eighth sister,” and today the cliffs stand as one of England’s most iconic landscapes. We begin in the coastal town of **Seaford**, home to a Napoleonic-era **Martello Tower** built in 1810 as part of a chain of 103 coastal defences against French invasion. From here, the trail climbs onto the cliff tops, where for much of the day we walk high above the sea, treated to endless coastal views and fresh sea air. Our route follows the **South Downs Way**, passing through **Birling Gap** and past the striking **Belle Tout Lighthouse**, famously moved 17 metres inland in 1999 to save it from falling into the sea. The final highlight is **Beachy Head**, a dramatic beauty spot with sheer chalk cliffs dropping into the sea below. We finish in **Eastbourne**, statistically England’s sunniest town, where we celebrate our coastal adventure with refreshments in a local pub. 🧭 **Guide:** • Leader: [GRAHAM](https://www.outdooraholics.co.uk/MeetTheOutdooraholics.pdf) • Contact (hike day only): 07796 098487 🍽️ **Food:** • Bring a packed lunch • Pub visit after the hike (drinks optional) 🎒**What to Bring** • Hiking boots/shoes • Water (2 litres minimum) • Packed lunch • Waterproofs (jacket and trousers) • Hat and gloves if cold • Train tickets are arranged – just meet us at the meeting point ⚠️ **Safety** Your guide is a trained hike leader and Outdoor Activity First Aider ❓ **Want to Know More?** • [New to Our Trips?](https://outdooraholics.co.uk/new_to_our_day_hikes.pdf) (perfect for first-timers, answers “what to expect”) • [About Us](https://outdooraholics.co.uk/about_us.pdf) (who Outdooraholics are, credibility, history) • [FAQs](https://outdooraholics.co.uk/FAQ.pdf) (covers common queries) 📲 **Explore More &** **Stay Connected** [Day hikes list](https://outdooraholics.co.uk/hikesbygrade.pdf) 👣 [Calendar - All trips](https://www.meetup.com/outdooraholics/events/calendar/) 📖 [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/outdooraholics/) 📸 [Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/Outdooraholics) & [Photos group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/Outdooraholics) 📄 **Terms and Conditions** By signing up or attending you agree to our [Terms and Conditions](https://outdooraholics.co.uk/TermsConditionsOutdooraholicsHikingUK.pdf) **Cliffs – danger** There are sheer drops off the cliffs and some of these soft chalk cliffs are crumbling at the edges with chunks regularly falling and no fencing in place. Please keep at least 3 metres away from the edges. If you fall, or the ground at the edge of the cliff collapses it will almost certainly be fatal. © Outdooraholics Hiking UK Ltd 2026 E & OE
