The UKCE New Forest Tour - Saturday

Sat 19th September 2026

A person in a red cycling jersey and blue helmet rides a bicycle on a path through a wooded area with green grass and ferns. A brown horse grazes nearby. The scene is sunlit and natural. A woman and a man, both wearing sporty attire and sunglasses, sit on deck chairs in a grassy field. They appear to be celebrating, each holding up a medal. The backdrop includes trees, a blue sky with clouds, and parked cars in the distance.

Organiser's Description

The New Forest Tour takes riders on an adventure through the beautiful New Forest National Park through the wide sweeping roads often lined with the local roaming livestock.

All four routes start at Gang Warily recreation ground in the Southeast corner of the Forest and head immediately south to the coast at Lepe. You'll be able to see out to the Isle of Wight before turning back into the heart of the New Forest.

The Long route takes in the whole boundary of the National Park so you'll be in for 160km of charming scenery, magical woodlands and not to mention the possibility of spotting some of the local deer community due to the event taking place during rutting season.

Our New Forest events are always incredibly popular so if you're thinking about taking part, don't leave it too late and enter as soon as possible.

After conquering your chosen route, you'll be rewarded with a finisher's medal and treats from our partners.

Don't Miss Out! The New Forest Tour is a popular event, so register early to secure your spot.

We look forward to welcoming you to the New Forest Tour this September! See You on the Start Line!

This is the first event I've taken part in and I absolutely loved it. Great communication prior to the event regarding what's required to bring and instructions for getting there. Brilliantly well run from start to finish. The route was signposted really well and the route through the new forest was fantastic. All the marshalls along the way were very helpful. The feeding stations were just what was needed and the cold bottle of beer at the end was soooo welcome. If I could give 6 stars, I would. Can't wait to do the next one. 👏👏👏

Really enjoyed this sportive. The course is well set out and the feeding/watering stations are well stocked and help is on hand for technical issues too. Top pizza at the end of the ride!
