London Dynamo | Surrey Explorer: Climbs, Views & Lanes Cycling Route

Chartwell Gravel Loop

This gravel route takes us a largely off-road route from Hampton Court Palace heading south-east out of Surrey and into Kent where it descends off the north ridge of the Downs and winds its way offroad to Churchill’s family home of Chartwell. It then heads through woods of Toys Hill before the return leg back to Surrey.

Twyford Drift

The Twyford Drift route is a fast and flat route out to Twyford via Drift Road and back via Windsor.

The Barhatch Blinder

The Barhatch Blinder is a a four-hill cycling route in the Surrey Hills: Staple Lane, Row Lane, Barhatch Lane and Whitedown Lane.

Effingham & Box Hill

Two lumps with this one. But not so sweet.

Shoreham Loop

The Shoreham Loop cycling route initially follows the line of the Chartwell Loop but then heads further south in a loop around Hever, up through Chiddingstone, before the long climb up Hubbards Hill. Skirting around Sevenoaks, the route goes through the pretty village of Shoreham before the wooded climb up Chelfield Lane (not one to do after heavy rain) before the leg back to London.
