Great climb, but tough. Newly laid surface is great. Don't get fooled by the first flatter section; that's not the halfway point. The last part is not as steep, but goes on for a while, so save some juice.

Update May 2025: The climb is fully covered in gravel. Unsuitable for descending and tricky (in places) to ride up. Avoid!

wildlife can be spotted in these fields if you are quiet and patient enough, you can catch a baby deer hopping around

Centenary Way is a lovely walk across the Cotswolds Hills from Upper Quinton towards Hidcote and onwards. The entry from Upper Quinton is a bit hard to find, as it literally goes past somebodies front yard and door (mind the little dog).
