The Beast
2026-09-06 | The Beast, Corfe Common, West Street, Corfe Castle, Dorset, BH20 5HH
The Beast is just that, a beast of race. Taking in some of the most spectacular views of Dorset (well in our humble opinion), the 12(ish) mile ‘undulating’ course starts on Corfe Castle Common before heading out towards Worth Matravers with great views of the sea! The course then heads back towards Corfe with only a few ‘minor’ hills to get up.
