Axminster to Dorchester

Description

Travel from Devon into Dorset following National Cycle Route 2.
The south coast is never far away as you travel through some lovely countryside on your way to the market town of Dorchester on the River Frome. The route takes you through many pretty Dorset villages including Little Bredy and Winterborne St Martin and has splendid views of the Dorset countryside and coast. You'll also pass close to the historic Hardy Monument which is worth a small detour if you have time.
