周辺のスポット/アトラクション・トップ20

Road surface has been replaced recently which is good. The initial part of the climb is brutal, descending it can be difficult especially in the wet so don’t pick up too much speed!

Quiet Lane that approaches Leith Hill

Indian cafe/shop very much present & seems worth trying. If you're into gin, there's also a distillery with bar (booking might be needed).

...many feel an eerie stillness looking out over the still water surrounded by the evergreen box trees. Legend has it that this is due to the fate of a woodcutter's daughter who was surprised by a nobleman on a horse as she bathed in the pool. Having failed to lure her to the bank, he rode his horse into the water and caused the girl to move out to deeper water where she drowned. When the woodcutter returned and found her body, he also found the nobleman's hat floating on the water. It bore the crest of none other than Prince John!

If you get to the top of the hill early enough, you can enjoy beautiful views of the sunrise.

Couple of benches to sit down & Relax along with coffee shop

This is the highlight of my regular 10k run and it is such a wonderful spot. I put in the work running up here and always pause my GPS watch and (my favourite time to run) take in the sunrise. The views are mesmerising and I often find myself staring out for 10 minutes or more. I then enjoy the run back down. The sandy trails make for a really enjoyable and slightly technical downhill section. There is a Lieutenant General Bernard Cyril FREYBERG, WWI Victoria Cross recipient buried in the graveyard here.

Take time to stop into Mandira's Kitchen and pick up a freshly made Award Winning Samosa for your upcoming walk. Also try the tomato and date chutney, it's savoury and delicious!
