View from Box Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Box Hill is one of the most famous hills in Surrey, if not the UK. Named after the ancient box woodland on its slopes, the hill is blanketed in green and enjoys panoramic viewpoints over the surrounding countryside and Dorking.

Box Hill has become more and more popular with cyclists after it featured in the 2012 Olympics cycling road race events. Around 850,000 people now visit the hill each year. Managed by the National Trust, you can follow in the pedal strokes of Olympians and ride the Box Hill circuit that climbs up to 390 feet (120 meters), although the hill's highest point is 735 feet (224 meters) at Betchworth Clumps.

Tye Lane Trail, Headley Heath

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Mixed bag.
Narrow bare earth to start, then on chalk descent and finishing with gravel/hardpack at bottom of valley. Descent must be natural run-off or the hill when it rains as centre of track is dominated by deep gulley with sizable chunks at the bottom. Steep sides and roots make it a bit hairy in the dark!
