Impressive. Lovely view from the viewpoint, but if you have a drone, it's definitely far better.

I went here and we walked through the town and onto the hill expecting to be able to walk through and past the giant. A small sign said “Public asked to stay of the grass due to erosion”

Not the greatest of views from the 'viewpoint' and the closer you get the less you see! Really needs to be seen from the air!

No notification at the bottom of the walk that the field was closed, only after you make the trek sign on single person wide path saying due soil erosion closed off 3 star ok walk but maintenance required- better sign posts, steps etc as steep.

Nice place. Please take the time to look round before making a hasty decision. Pretty village too. I would recommend having a walk around the area. This has been here a long time. It's been a childhood dream of mine to see this landmark feature. The viewing area is slightly neglected which is a shame, despite clearly costing the tax payer a fortune to install. We spent 5 mins litter picking but didn't bring my mower or hedge trimmer. Clearly not been kept on a maintenance schedule for over a month or two. Maybe Dorset council should spend some of the monies on a mower, sweeping , shovel & labour(or the residents could make an effort as we do in our village which isn't a world renowned site).

It's hard to see the giant from the viewing place or from the fence around the edge of the actual field. I like the legend around him, though. It's still good to be able to say we have seen it 😊 another landmark ticked off!

Worth the visit and walk up the hill. Wild orchids were flowering in early June with plenty of insect life. A lovely walk through many different trails before & after the giants hill. Yes you can't see the giant very well while walking on the hill, that's the way it was made, to be seen from a distance. It is also fenced off to protect it, if every numbskull was allowed to walk over it, erosion would soon take hold and it would start to disappear. Also don't expect the grass to be trimmed every week for your viewing pleasure, Cerne Abbas doesn't receive anywhere near the number of tourists to justify the money it would cost to do this. Take your time here and spend some money in the village to help out the locals.... and don't be ungrateful, rate it 5⭐!

It was great to see, but you obviously don't get the view you see online which I suspect is taken by a drone. Lovely walks in the area and an interesting town. The carpark is free with a donation box so you can contribute to the upkeep.

Nice picturesque village and countryside walks over the hills. Good parking for the Cerne Giant chalk drawing. However only a sign at top of hill on a barbed wire fence around the cerne giant area that no one can actually go up close to see it. A steep climb and good cardio workout. But disappointing that you can only really view it from the car park. Grass was long so not all the features can be seen apart from the big knob.

Only ever seen the Giant from far away, so to get as close as possible to him, was on my bucket list (ticked off ✔️) The village is so lovely, quiet and the walks are well worth it (if you can manage it) The small car park is in the village and is run on donations. Just a lovely,lovely place with a very special ambience.
