4.47 km

Zig Zag Hill Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

As close as you can get to an Alpine switchback-ridden climb in North Dorset, the view from the top at Wingreen Hill is always worth the hard work.

7.17 km

View from Charlton Down

Highlight • Viewpoint

Looks like the highest point for miles and offers the most exciting decent when heading towards Shaftesbury with a series of super fast switchbacks, it’s like a scene from a descent of Alpe d’Huez, only, shorter and not as snowy!

9.73 km

Ashmore Village and Pond

Highlight • Settlement

A central pond, thatched cottages and a sense of peace, Ashmore is a wonderfully pretty village to pedal through. It's actually the highest in Dorset – too high for time …

Sutton Clump Descent and View of Blackmore Vale

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A really fast descent that gives you the full view over the Blackmore Vale. Be mindful of the high hedges and alert to oncoming farm traffic.
