New Forest cycling tours available from Dorset Premier Park

13/06/2023

Guests staying at an adult-only campsite at St Leonards, in Dorset, now have the opportunity to go on guided cycling tours of the New Forest during their stay.

Back of Beyond Touring & Glamping Park has partnered with New Forest Cycling Tours in order to be able to offer these exciting guided tours.

British Cycling accredited Mountain Bike Leader, Steve Edmed, has teamed with the campsite's owners to give their customers the confidence to ride from the campsite into nearby Moors Valley or, on an extended tour into the New Forest National Park including Burley.

Tours currently on offer include the Moors Valley Leisure Ride, a 2.5 hour tour following the Castleman Trailway and on a circular loop of Moors Valley Country Park, or for more confident riders, the Back of Beyond Adventure Ride, a 4-5 hour ride into the New Forest National Park at Ringwood and onto Burley.

All tours should be pre-booked and guests can either bring their own bikes or hire e-bikes.

Steve Edmed, owner of New Forest Cycling Tours says: “I love cycling and all that’s on offer here in the New Forest and look forward to being able to showcase some of it to holidaymakers in the area. By working with Back of Beyond, we are able to connect people who are already passionate with the great outdoors with a safe and stress-free way to experience cycling in the Dorset and Hampshire countryside.”

Victoria Bowrey, owner of Back of Beyond adds: “We have many guests staying with us that bring their own bikes but perhaps don’t have the confidence to read maps to get to the New Forest. Working with New Forest Cycling Tours, we are giving customers the opportunity to take the stresses of navigating away and a chance to explore the beautiful New Forest.”
