Deer in Richmond Park

Highlight • Forest

The deer move all around the park, but can mostly be found here across from the main road though. Be careful on getting too close during Bucking season, they are more frisky and curious than usual.

Hampton Court Palace and the Thames Path

Highlight • Castle

Around the summer solstice we rode past Hampton Court on the Thames path and saw the best wild flowers display ever.

Chapel Lane (Box Hill Approach)

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

This is a nice quiet road for the most part, especially if you are going down it towards Box Hill. If going up it, the last part of the climb is the steepest, say the last 300m, but its not too bad. It's a nice way back towards north Surrey.

Ranmore Climb

Box Hill Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Box Hill is the classic zig-zag climb made famous by the Ride London UCI race and Ride 100 charity event... and it's actually a lot easier than it looks (although perhaps not as easy as the professionals make it look) - a fun climb with stunning views over the Surrey Hills and Weald!

View from Box Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Box Hill is one of the most famous hills in Surrey, if not the UK. Named after the ancient box woodland on its slopes, the hill is blanketed in green and enjoys panoramic viewpoints over the surrounding countryside and Dorking.

Box Hill has become more and more popular with cyclists after it featured in the 2012 Olympics cycling road race events. Around 850,000 people now visit the hill each year. Managed by the National Trust, you can follow in the pedal strokes of Olympians and ride the Box Hill circuit that climbs up to 390 feet (120 meters), although the hill's highest point is 735 feet (224 meters) at Betchworth Clumps.

Headley Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Not the steepest or longest but the changing gradient and poor surface makes it harder than it looks, and hard to get it right (I never do)! A few nice sections covered in trees.
