Yes it was taken straight from here with a few diversions for food and camping https://bikepacking.com/routes/woods-rat-run/
Key spots; Southbourne beach before the chaos of Bournemouth. Anywhere on the coast south of Corfe Castle but theres a pretty lovely valley leading down the Chapmans pool, quite the climb back out though. Wareham on the River Frome for a dip. The Cricketers pub in Iwerne Courtney/Shroton. The New Forest Inn in Emery Down for a pint of ale.

I did my first proper bikepacking trip back in the first week of april. It was an offroad route from London to Paris via Lyons-la-Foret and Versailles avoiding as much of the Avenue verte as possible. Just short of 220miles. Weather was perfect if not a bit frosty in the morning. 10/10 would recommend.
