Rhinefield Ornamental Drive is one of the best sections of road cycling in the New Forest.

This narrow avenue is 2 miles (3.2 km) long and is lined with Douglas firs, redwoods, giant sequoias and vibrant rhododendrons. Some of these trees were planted in the mid-1800s and many of them are now over 150 feet (46 m) tall.
