Starting from Sixpenny Handley this on and off-road route crosses the open downland and big skies of Cranborne Chase. The highlight is the ruined 12thC church of Knowlton. It served a now-vanished hamlet abandoned in the 17thC. What makes it unique though is its siting at the centre of a Neolithic henge an unexplained pairing of old and new religions.
Distance 16 miles
