This trail is one I have been riding most weeks since 1997, like all natural trails it evolves as trees fall or new puddles form. Always lots of fun in the summer, can become hard work with mud in Jan/Feb, but usually passable. The tree felling made it mostly impassable for 2022, and then passable with care in 2023. After plenty of work from locals it became fully rideable again in the summer of 2024. The jumps closer to Winchester were built by people with small wheel bikes, they are usable with larger wheels, but check the landings before using.

A really lovely spot to drink in the beauty of the River Test

You have to stop on the bridge but there is a pavement and it’s worth it.

One of my favourite descents. Been doing it for over 25 years, and still get a big grin each time. Probably best to avoid as a descent on a sunny summer afternoon, as you will frighten the many walkers even if you do stop well before you get to them. If you are climbing it they will usually be very encouraging. I often ride it at night, and then you can really enjoy the speed of the descent without worrying about meeting others. Don't do that first time unless you are very experienced :-)

EDIT May 2023: The logging activity has now concluded and the trail has become useable. There are tons of small branches/debris littering the trail and a lot of damage to the surface and the route. Some of the bogs have been filled with bark chippings but there are some left still. The trail no longer flows and it's hard to read. Such a shame. At least it no longer forces you to walk. ----------------------------------- This trail has been rendered un-ridable by devastating logging activity. I was able to carry my bike through with difficulty, but it is now a bog and the logs and debris on the ground make it impossible to ride. Please DO NOT ride on the parallel Andover Road, it is extremely dangerous. Just find a way through the bog on foot. No idea when or if it will be repaired. So so sad for the area.

Great section of downhill. Slippery on the wet winter conditions but still a great section

Beautiful little area surrounded by Mottisfont village and King's Somborne, quaint and quiet, lovely roads to ride on.
