CYCLING EXPERIENCE

1) BEAULIEU TO BUCKERS HARD

Start point: Beaulieu, SO42 7ZL, Distance from hotel: 40 minute driveDistance of ride: 2 miles each way / 30 minutes

This short route of just 2 miles follows along the gravel path besides the Beaulieu River as it meanders its way to the picturesque village of Buckler’s Hard. Stunning scenery all the way. Combine with a visit to the excellent Beaulieu National Motor Museum.

Hire bikes and start off at the New Forest Activities on the High Street in Beaulieu.

2) LYNDHURST TO HATCHET POND

Start point: Gosport Ln, Lyndhurst, SO43 7BF, Distance from hotel: 25 minute driveDistance of ride: 8 miles each way / 1 – 2 hours

This easy-going cycle route starts at the pretty town of Lyndhurst – regarded as the ‘capital’ of the New Forest. It then takes you through lovely New Forest habitats, until you reach Hatchet Pond, a haven for wildlife. Most of the way is on managed gravel tracks, with a small 0.5-mile stretch on a quiet lane. Hire bikes in Lyndhurst – try AA Bike Hire or The Woods Cyclery – then cycle down Gosford Lane to the start.

3) COASTAL PIER-TO-PIER CYCLE RIDE

Start point: Christchurch Harbour HotelDistance of ride: 11 miles to Boscombe and back, 14 miles to Bournemouth and back / 2 hours to Boscombe, 2.5 hours to Bournemouth

Several years back, someone in the council had the genius idea to install a promenade for a walking/cycling route right along the coastline, connecting up existing fragments.

This excellent route sees you leave the hotel to catch the ferry at Mudeford Quay across the Mudeford Spit. From there, it’s a flat car-free road along the water’s edge to the beautiful nature reserve at Hengistbury Head. When you reach the Hungry Hiker café, cross the park to join the promenade alongside the sandy beach. The coastline promenade just goes on and on, so you can ride for as long or short a distance as you like.

If you make it that far, we recommend stopping off at the ever-popular Urban Reef by Boscombe Pier for food & drink. Otherwise, remember take a Harbour Hotels’ luxury picnic to eat on the beach somewhere along the way or return to the Christchurch Harbour Hotel for a well-earned lunch, dinner or afternoon tea on the Upper Deck’s terrace.

Please follow both the Highway Code and this New Forest Cycling

Code which is supported by cycling groups and local organisations.

Be considerate

• Ride positively and well clear of uneven road edges but with

consideration for other road-users. To allow vehicles to overtake

safely, leave gaps for them to pull into and move into single file when

necessary and safe to do so. Never ride more than two abreast.

• Off road, cycle only on the waymarked network of Forestry Commission

tracks, bridleways, byways, restricted byways and designated routes.

• Use this map to plan your route, check the Forestry Commission

website for route closures, and try to be off Forest tracks by sunset.

• Be polite to other cyclists, motorists, pedestrians and residents.

• When passing people and animals, use your bell or call out a

warning and allow them plenty of room. Be prepared to

stop if necessary.

• Do not drop litter or feed the animals; human food and litter are a

danger to them.

• Close gates behind you so the animals don’t stray

• Respect the quiet of the Forest.

Be safe• Pass animals slowly and to one side if possible.

• Take extra care near horse riders; a kick or fall from a horse could

be fatal. Be prepared to stop. Use your bell or call out a friendly

warning well in advance. When it is safe, pass wide and at walking

pace, to one side only. Look out for any reaction from the horse.

• Keep to a safe speed, on and off road, particularly on narrow lanes,

steep hills and bends. Look out for pot holes, poor surfaces and

cattle grids.

• Look out for and obey safety signs. Do not pass large vehicles and

trailers until you know it is safe to do so.

• Ensure you are visible by wearing bright or reflective clothing.

Use lights after dark and in poor daytime visibility.

• Avoid the use of earphones.

Follow the Forest Cycle Code

Come and explore the New Forest on two wheels...Exploring by bike is the ideal way to discover the magnificent beauty and fascinating wildlife that can easily be missed by car. The off-road and road-based New Forest cycle network offers something for all the family to enjoy.The Forestry Commission provides over 100 miles of off-road waymarked cycle routes. Most of these routes are particularly suited to families with children and can also be used by people on mobility scooters. The routes are marked on the ground with wooden posts, each numbered. Some of these are shown on the map to help you to find your way around. These marker posts also display an Ordnance Survey grid reference.This map brings together these managed routes with all similar networks in the New Forest National Park and links to the surrounding area.The New Forest is a beautiful, tranquil and environmentally sensitive place enjoyed by local residents and visitors alike. Mutual respect and courtesy are essential to enable those with different interests to enjoy the Forest together.This is a working forest, with forestry, farming and equestrian activity on its narrow roads and tracks. Ponies, cattle and other animals are free to roam the Forest and most of its roads. Be aware that animals are easily startled and may suddenly move into your path.
