South Harting Hill Climb

Highlight • Climb

There are three good climbs heading south out of South Harting. The SDW crosses two of them at the top. Plenty to explore and excellent cycling around the area.
One of the climbs was closed for tree cutting on this visit.

Queen Elizabeth Country Park Mountain Bike Trails

Highlight • Trail

There are two trails here. A blue "intermediate" and red "advanced trail" with jumps and very steep sections. The blue "intermediate" trail is just about OK for hybrid bikes with front suspension and you'll want to drop your tyre pressures to 50psi for the rough ground. I had 75psi for road riding and it was far too harsh. I didn't want to drop the pressures as I had an 18-mile ride home ahead of me.
Both trails really need a mountain bike with fatter tyres to cope with the rough tracks. Don't bring a road bike or anything like tag-alongs for young children here.
