Scanning tunneling potentiometry (STP) is used to probe the local, current-induced electrochemical potential of carriers in graphene near circular electrostatic barriers in an out-of-plane magnetic field ranging from 0 to 1.4 T. These measurements provide nanometer-resolved information about the local motion of carriers, revealing significant changes in carrier dynamics with increasing field strength. At low magnetic fields the electrochemical potential displays a spiral-like pattern, while at high fields it exhibits distinct changes at particular radii. We show that the observed behavior indicates a transition from diffusive to ballistic transport. Additionally, the sharp changes in the measured potential profile at high fields result from the `spirograph' motion of carriers, which creates a local enhancement of the Hall field one cyclotron diameter away from the semiclassical turning point near the electrostatic barrier.
