View of Durdle Door

Highlight • Beach

The view down towards the coast from this highpoint on the road is great. Hambury Tout is the hill directly south with a trig point at 134m. Lulworth Cove is to your left (looking out to sea) below West Lulworth village. To your right is Durdle Door and the Man o' War cove (images of these in the highlights) you can get down to them by turning into the car park (entrance about 100m west) and pushing the bike for a short distance.

Grange Hill Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Really steep hill. Nice climb and well worth it. However do check that the firing range doesn't mean that the road is closed, or else you'll be going back down straight away!

Swanage Seafront

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

This stretch along the Swanage seafront is just blissful. There's plenty to see and do in this pretty town and you can ride around a lot of it, although away from the sea it does get hilly. Pay attention to signs as there are sections where you can't cycle.
