By far our most popular route for families with young kids as the trail starts only 400m from the hire centre. You can select a longer loop which takes you though the Tall Tree Arboretum passing the impressive Rhinefield House Hotel (open to non-residents, even grubby cyclists!) or just do the linear route to the pub at Bank and back.

A popular mid-distance ride which combines the distinct woodland and heathland characteristics of the New Forest. The main route takes you past Hatchet Pond where you can stop and observe the wildlife or follow our short extension to the village of East Boldre. A longer extension takes you via lanes to Beaulieu or Buckler's Hard (or both as they are connected by a riverside path which you may cycle along thanks to kind permission from the Beaulieu Estate).

A popular route for families with older kids and older groups which follows forest trails, parts of a disused railway and passes through the outskirts of Burley village historically renowned for witches and smuggling. Today it has an array of pubs, tea shops and a cider making business.

A sheltered woodland loop with a pub option adding 3 miles in total on the outskirts of Lyndhurst, accessed from our Hire Centre by a short 2km cycle along Mill Lane.

If the coast is more your thing, this adventurous trip takes you southwest to Keyhaven and Hurst Castle. It then follows the footpath - where bicycles are permitted - along the sea wall to Lymington. The views of the coast and the Isle of Wight are plentiful and you can cycle back from Lymington along lanes and trails or catch the train instead!

This route takes you through the woods on one side of the road and brings you back through the woods on the other side as we don’t recommend following the main road to Lyndhurst. There is a pub on the outskirts if you don’t want to go into the village centre on the road.

A more adventurous route which heads north, passing the Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary and offering a choice of two unique pubs close together at the halfway mark. The outward journey is mostly forest track and you can take it easy on the return by cycling back along the magnificent Ornamental Drive which is mostly flat or downhill. The deer are wild and come and go as they please, so there's a good chance of seeing them unfortunately we can't make any guarantees. We can guarantee beer though!

A great route for riders wanting scenic thrills without the hills, ending up at Studland with lots of beach and cafe/pub options.

Cycle to Swanage plus the extra bonus of catching the steam train one-way!

Cycle to the cafe via quiet flat lanes and on to the narrow white sandy beach

Use E-bike unless reasonably fit! Reaching Kimmeridge with jaw-dropping views.
