Best to get parked early at blackwater.

Bolton's Bench is a well-known natural knoll and landmark situated on the edge of Lyndhurst, the "capital" of the New Forest. A prominent ancient yew tree grows at the top of the hill, which is surrounded by grassy lawns where the New Forest's famous ponies, donkeys, and cattle often graze freely. According to a medieval tale, a dragon that terrorized the nearby village of Bisterne was slain on the site by a knight named Sir Maurice de Berkeley. The dragon's body supposedly became the hill, and the ancient yew trees grew where the knight and his hounds later died.

An amazing and very charming place that hides some secrets from the past..

Just to note that this small section of trailway has some looser stones which will be unsuitable for slimmer (road bike) tyres but the further you travel West towards Ringwood, the surface becomes more forest like and therefore more pleasant to ride on.

Cycling in the New Forest always gives you a great experience, and the Lyndhurst to Broeckenhurst gravel link is a super good, well-surfaced trail connecting route that takes you through the heart of this ancient forest woodland. The New Forest never fails to impress, a super nice ride section.

Nice easy cycling route

Great views and easy cycle

Great gravel track section, my Maxxis tyres just love this type of terrain
