The view of giant is best from the opposite hill. When I took my photo the chalk was very dull so viewing wasn’t brilliant but I know they restore him every now and again so he should be bright again.The climb up past the giant is very steep so if hiking poles would be a great addition and grippy footwear 👟

As you pedal around the undulating landscape, the trees and hedges often part to bring you exceptional views. This is one such place, well worth taking the time to pause at to admire the patchwork landscape beyond. And, of course, take a quick photo of your bike in the foreground.

Peru has the Nazca Lines and England has the Cerne Abbas Giant, a naked man on a hillside wielding a club. One of Dorset's most iconic features, this extraordinary hill carving is around 1,000 years old and has mystified historians and passers by ever since. The origins and exact age are unknown, with plenty of theories abounding from the giant representing a deity to him holding power as a fertility symbol. Either way, it's a spectacular site. As the giant lies quite high on the rounded hill, it's not easy to see from the valley and the best viewpoint is this one. From here, you can hike up to the carving via a variety of footpaths.

Great view of the giant and even better bakery around the corner

Ride down Acreman Street for a marvellous view of the Cerne Abbas Giant. Measuring at 55 metres (180 ft) high, the origin of the figure of a man wielding a club on Trendle Hill is unknown. The chalk figure is often thought to be ancient, yet there is no evidence for its existence prior to drawings found from the early 1700s. It is made from a series of narrow, small trenches filled with chalk rubble, and is maintained by the National Trust.

Lovely stretch of road here but going up quite steeply.

As well as the views there are butterflies and moths of note. https://butterfly-conservation.org/our-work/reserves/lankham-bottom-dorset
