Summer Lightening Trail


Not technically a Bike Park or Trail Centre, but certainly feels like one as cycling is allowed across much of the hillside, with a myriad of superb singletrack trails which provides the best off-road riding in the South East. 

The (3.5km) Summer Lightning trail, now a loop, is the only waymarked trail in the area though, and it starts at the top of Leith Hill, by the tower. Signage isn't all that obvious at times, but it's a popular trail so follow the line of riders, or the tyre tracks. 

There are three main hills: Leith, Holmbury and Pitch, each of which has a number of brilliant trails to explore.
