Singletrack Descent in Chilterns National Landscape

Not too steep but you can carry a good amount of speed down the track. It has good drainage so it doesn't get muddy. Just watch out for walker during the weekends.

Chinnor Hill Descent

Highlight • Viewpoint

Fast descent from the lookout to the ridgeway on the higher (rooty) line.

Tip by

The first blast starts after the gate but watch out, as it’s short, until you have to anchor up for the second gate, after that it’s full speed ahead on swoopy single track.. just watch out for walkers and horses.
