Optohedron Sculpture and View of Surrey Hills

Highlight • Monument

The Optothedron is an eye-catching and pleasant surprise to stumble across as you make your way along this woodland trail deep in the Surrey Hills AONB.

The sculpture was created …

Shere Descent – A25 Drop

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

Be warned, this descent gets steep and technical very quickly. Even experienced MTB riders would find it pretty hairy on a gravel bike!

Tip by

9.07 km

WWII Canadian Concrete Reservoir

Highlight • Monument

Apparently built by the Canadians in preparation for D Day

Tip by

12.8 km

Shere Drop, Dark Lane Singletrack

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A great rutted singletrack descent into Shere. It's rideable on most bikes all year round, but probably only doable on a MTB in winter!

Tip by

13.3 km

River Tillingbourne Ford

Highlight • Bridge

Could probably cycle through if you haven’t just washed your bike! There is a footbridge if you don’t fancy it.

Sandy Descent at Thetford Commons

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

Lovely little sandy descent from the monument.

Tip by

19.8 km

Great Tangley Manor Bridleway

Highlight • Trail

Quite fast but has a few blind corners so keep an eye for people (and horses!) coming the other way! Great in the dry, can get a bit boggy after rain.

Tip by

23.7 km

View from St Martha's Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful views across to the South Downs. Brilliant descent on the west side too
