Once you're at this well-known junction, also known as the Dorsetshire Gap, it doesn't matter which direction you head because the landscape in this area is breathtaking.

Right next to the Wessex Ridgeway, near the Dorset Gap, you can see this square earthwork, approximately 25 meters in length on each side and 1 meter above the flat ground.

Bulbarrow Hill is situated within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which is known for its scenic landscapes and diverse ecosystems. The hill is part of the Dorset Downs, a range of chalk hills that extend across the county. It is one of the highest points in Dorset, with an elevation of around 274 meters (899 feet) above sea level. Due to its height, it provides panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the rolling hills, farmland, and picturesque villages that make up the Dorset landscape.

The Dorsetshire Gap is a very atmospheric location, very easy to imagine Medieval traders passing through it. Be aware that the bridleways too and from it are tough, the tracks marked on the maps may not exist on the ground, cycling can be hard an slow, Still worth a visit.

A square earthwork, about 25m each side, a raised bank about 1m above the flat surrounding ground, immediately adjacent to the Wessex Ridgeway. The reason for the earthworks has not yet been determined.

Grassy pitches. Beautiful sunsets as well if you’re lucky :)

Beautiful stretch but a donkey’s trail so not really for cycling. Bumpy stretches before and after, mtb/hikers terrain!
