    Road cycling

    What a lovely stretch of the NCN26. You can continue along this very quiet road all the way to Dorchester via Poundbury - it might get a little hilly, but it's quieter than the route the NCN26 eventually takes which becomes a cyclepath alongside the road, which is actually a less hilly way into Dorchester

    It is markedly hillier on the quiet road but it is much quieter and pleasant (def not busy usually three or four vehicles tops). If you are concerned over time or wanting to be apart from traffic altogether take the cyclepath.
