    Off road gravel path running between Sturminster & Blandford Forum

      July 29, 2020

      Traffic free, largely flat - perfect for chilling along, families and uncertain cyclists

        July 29, 2020

        This nine mile trail from Blandford to Sturminster Newton takes you through rewilded farmland, is largely traffic free and at worst traffic lite. Gives you great views of the iron age hill fort at Hod Hill and has parking either end.

          Quiet, beautiful and occasionally uneven surface

            October 1, 2020

            Great off-road section, avoiding some of the busy roads on this route. Has a good surface and was fairly quiet.

              March 20, 2021

              Traffic free trailway fairly easy going surface extending from Spetisbury in the south and to Sturminster Newton heading north. Mostly old railway line. You would be able to get along on a road bike and avoids busy roads.

                What a beautiful place to ride a bike! Nothing too demanding along this route. A mixture of cyclists, dog walkers, hikers and pushchair parents. highly recommend this route.
