Hiking

Shute's Lane (this section) is widely regarded as the finest example of an ancient trail, eroded by use and rainfall over the years, with this particular one being 10 metres below the 'normal' ground level. It is stunning .... and look out for the spectacular graffiti too! Watch this video:

Hiking

If it's been raining recently, probably best deferred to another time. The surface can be very slippery when damp.
