What to expect on Hazard Beach – Lands End Mansion loop from Portsmouth
This touring cycling route takes you on a fascinating journey, starting with the picturesque coastal roads around Portsmouth, New Hampshire. You'll enjoy views of the Atlantic Ocean, coastal marshes, and charming historic areas, potentially passing by beaches like Wallis Sands or through the historic center of Portsmouth itself. The terrain here is generally a mix of flat roads and gently rolling hills, offering a pleasant ride. As the route transitions towards the 'Lands End Mansion' experience, you'll find yourself in the Newport, Rhode Island area, where the focus shifts to breathtaking ocean views along routes like Ocean Drive and glimpses of magnificent Gilded Age mansions.

Planning your visit
Given that this route combines elements from two distinct regions, Portsmouth, NH, and Newport, RI, planning requires a bit more thought. For the Portsmouth section, you'll find ample parking in and around the city, with many routes offering easy access to coastal paths. For the Newport section, consider parking at designated areas near the mansions, some of which offer bike parking. The best time to cycle these coastal areas is during the spring or fall to avoid the peak summer crowds and heat, though summer offers warmer waters for a post-ride dip. Always check local conditions, especially for coastal winds.
