Not to be confused with the North Dorset Trailway, this is a circular tour of the area, entirely on-road and hilly at times.
Gillingham's railway station makes it a good place to start and end. There are direct trains from London Waterloo, though you’ll need to book a space for your bike.
Villages such as Milton Abbas and the towns of Shaftesbury and Blandford Forum couldn't be prettier, and for the most part the lanes are quiet. A classic weekend tour for the experienced cyclist.

The GPX needs adjusting south of Shaftsbury. This one takes you along St James Street and then up Gold Hill (the Hovis hill) This isn't correct as it disagrees with the signage and I don't think it can really be cycled that way. Instead you go up St John's Hill and along Bimport
