There's a small clearing here between rows of forestry trees where you can haul your bike up the ditch and a few minutes' walk to the Captain's Way on the other side of the wood. Could do with a linking trail here but there isn't one, so this is the best way through.

The southern half of the cut through has been felled and is impassable by bike. We struggled around the top and down the east side on foot.
