Gravel road link towards Hethe. Some short sharp ups and downs and a couple of blind bends - watch out for dog walkers!

Good dirt/gravel road between Buckingham and Bicester. If it's been raining a lot it can get boggy, but generally fine on a mountain bike with nice wide tyres.

Passes close to an area known as "Christmas Gorse". Mainly wide grassy bridleway, easy going in summer no doubt muddy in winter.

This beautiful ancient lime tree has a girth of 8.02m at a height of 1.10m, suggesting an advanced age of around 300 years. Lime trees are important trees for beekeepers with their fragrant and nectar-producing flowers.

Claydon House in a National Trust property from the 18th century. This Bridleway runs through the estate and past the house. The day we rode through they were filming, Pinewood trucks were all around and winnebagos were lined up for the actors and crew. We were still allowed to ride through without any problems. It's a beautiful place and worth a ride through for the views of the house and the lake. There's also a glamping site called Embers nearby if you are looking for a campsite to stay in the area.
