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!

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!

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.

21.9 km

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.

24.5 km

Reasonably quiet climb on the edge of the Surrey Hills, compared to some others in the area. Good views and decent tracks but without the crowds.
