Starting and finishing in Guildford, only 30 minutes by train from central London, this 177-kilometre (110-mile) route offers stunning views and varied terrain and is ideal for London-based budding bikepackers.
The circular route takes in the traffic-free Downs Link, part of the well-known South Downs Way, and the Shipwrights Way bridleway. From quiet, flat tracks to leg-burstingly hilly chalk singletrack, while this might not be an incredibly long bikepacking route, it certainly makes up for it in variety.
Fish and chips by the sea, coffee and cake along the cycle path and a sunset on the trails: this is a perfect overnighter for a beginner backpacker offering really varied, easily navigated terrain and stunning scenery. If you'd like to break down the distance further, it could also make a great three-day route.
