Map
46.1k, with 440 mtrs of climbing. On the cusp between moderate and hilly, but nothing steep i.e over 10%. The stretch through the woods, alongside the railway line, up to Buriton is one of my favourites in the area. It is also the setting for a grisly murder in a novel I have just read!
QE tell me that the new area won't be finished until August, so the cafe is still in the tent.
