Downhill westbound

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Ride westbound for the downhill. Deceptively tiring eastbound, especially the first half, followed by a slight uphill grade which doesn't let your legs recover.

The White Horse, Hatfield Heath

Highlight • Settlement

Good pub in a great location for a stop. Hatfield Heath is a picturesque green space perfect for a mid ride break... with or without a refreshing drink from the pub!

Tip by

6.57 km

Plenty of up-and-down here and for me, this is best traversed southbound. There are more climbs southbound, but the worst of them is short and sharp. Northbound, the climb after crossing Pincey Brook is long and a complete a gut-buster.

Matching Green Common

Highlight • Settlement

A classic Essex village green and a nice place to pause for a break. The pub opposite is also pretty good.

Solitary Tree in Rapeseed Field, White Roding

Highlight • Viewpoint

This beautiful tree-lined avenue is located along a quiet country road in White Roding.

Look over to the west and you'll see a solitary tree standing tall amidst a sea of rapeseed flowers, a very lovely scene indeed.

The Cock Inn

Highlight • Pub

Good pub, Wednesday is pie night!

Hatfield Broad Oak Village and St Mary the Virgin Church

Highlight • Historical Site

Hatfield Broad Oak is a beautiful rural village that has a church, two pubs, butchers and a village shop.

It's probably best known for being the closest village to Barrington Hall, a Grade II-listed red-brick country manor.

Best traversed southbound

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Whichever direction you take this, you have one gut-busting climb to do, but overall I think southbound is the best way. You get the climb immediately out of the way …
