Dorset Mountain Bike Guide
County of Dorset Stretches approximately 60 by 40 miles – 50% of which is within an Area of Outstanding natural Beauty and includes a wonderful network of bridleways, drove roads and other rights of way that that is disproportionate to its size. This had made route selection for the mountain biker in Dorset quite a daunting prospect.
Until now! 33 fantastic, well-researched and legal routes. Each route has full colour maps, excellent photography and information on amenities, services and bike shops in the local area. The variety in route difficulty will suit all levels of experience and most routes can be linked to form an all-day epic for the more experienced rider.
