London to the Chilterns

Cycling Route

Details
83.88 mi
4,883 ft
The Chiltern Hills lie north-west of London, and it's surprising that more London cyclists don't head out this way. Rural and beautiful, and full of picturesque villages, they can feel remote from the bustle of city life. The green folds of the hills are always lush, and the narrow, quiet lanes are typically shrouded by trees. Escape from London to the landscapes where the Red Kite flies.
