For mountain bikers, technical trailheads begin along the rugged bridleways of Highcombe Edge and the steep drops near the Robertson Memorial. These gateways lead riders down narrow, sandstone-cut singletracks, featuring steep, technical root complexes and loose sand chutes that plunge deeply into the wild undergrowth of the Hidden Valley.

Looking out from the rim of the Devil’s Punch Bowl, you’re treated to a spectacular vista of a massive, natural hollow carved into the Surrey Hills. The sweeping valley below is alive with a colorful patchwork of purple heather, bright gorse, and thick woods, while sharp eyes might catch the London skyline far in the distance on a clear day.

No trip to the Punchbowl is complete without taking in the view from the dedicated viewpoint just beyond the National Trust cafe. A relief on a large stone on the viewing platform gives more information about what you can see.

The Devil's Punchbowl has a network of paths criss crossing through it. It's wonderful to visit any time of the year but on a crisp autumn day when the trees glow with a golden hue, you're in for a treat. Legend has it that it was created when the Devil scooped up a rock from here and threw it at Thor. The village to the north, Thursley, does indeed mean 'Thor's place'.
