Fun descent off beacon batch, nice and open although will over grow with bracken in summer. Amazing views Cross over Blagdon lake. At the end I recommend crossing the road and continue over the top of Burrington for some more natural riding with a view.

Great trail from Beacon Batch summit to the B3134 road at the top of Burrington Combe.

In descent, it's fast and fairly open, although the trails are quite rocky with some ruts.

It's a great ascent, long enough to be challenging and with some fun technical bits but very achievable.
