Lovely place to enjoy lunch or just a drink

The open summit of Holmbury Hill offers beautiful panoramic views. A delightful toposcope adds to the pleasure allowing you to identify features over 20 miles away. For example, from here on a clear day it is straightforward to see the prehistoric hill fort of Chanctonbury Ring on the South Downs located 20 miles (32 km) due south. Holmbury Hill is one of the three classic Surrey hills - along with Box Hill and Leith Hill - included in the ‘Surrey Three Peaks Challenge’. This 23-mile (37 km) round trip is comparable in distance to the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge but has a third less climbing. For less energetic hikers there is also a pleasant shorter three peaks Surrey walk comprising Pitch Hill, Holmbury Hill and Leith Hill which has a round trip length of 12 miles (19 km).

St Leonard's Forest is an extensive woodland that affords cultural history, wildlife spotting opportunities and peaceful walking. The 12 square mile (31 km2) Forestry Commission woodland is part of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. According to legend, a French hermit lived in the woodland in the 6th century and slayed a dragon amid the ancient trees. It is after him, St Leonard, that the forest is named.

On Leith Hill's broad southern slopes, the Rhododendron Wood is a colourful feast for the senses in spring and early summer. The plantings were created around 1900 by Charles Darwen's sister Caroline Wedgwood, who had moved to Leith Hill Place in 1847. Her actions totally transformed this patch of land, driven on by her vision and passion for botany and flowering plants.

Planted in celebration of the Millennium with donations from the Friends and supporters of The Hurtwood, with help from the children of Shere, Peaslake and Abinger Common Schools, the Sayers Croft Action Group, the BAA Gatwick Environmental Fund and the Surrey Hills AONB. Designed by Jonathan Wells FRICS FAAV, Agent for Shere Manor Estate, to show the infinite variety of conifers from all over the world.

A scenic spot which is a great place for a rest before sending some fun singletrack.

Great spot to take a quick breather especially if the views are clear. Long descent down to Peaslake where you can pick up a quick cheese straw!

This is a cool sculpture in the Surrey Hills, turn left at the back of the car park if accessing from the road. Makes for a lovely place for a break to take in a lovely view
