Box Hill & Ranmore Cross Country

The old country station at Box Hill & Westumble provides the perfect start to this ride. We'll take in a circuit of beautiful Mole Valley where the river cuts a passage right through the heart of the North Downs.

The Route

As with all our rides there a many options for the route. We are blessed with a huge network of byways and bridleways to choose from.  We will take in trails through Ranmore Common, Polesden Lacy, Norbury Park, Mickleham Downs, Headley Heath and Box Hill.

There are a number of places we could stop for lunch, but we'll try to make sure we reach the highly acclaimed Running Horses in Mickleham, a lovely spot and our local.

XC Rides usually last 5-6 hours with an hour off in the middle for lunch.

Experience & fitness

We try to match each ride to the experience and fitness of the people who book.

Please be aware that this ride has an easy to intermediate rating.

If this doesn't sound like your cup of tea, please consider trying one of our Singletrack Rides which are more technically difficult (and much shorter in duration).

Equipment required

You will need the following equipment

You won't need to carry tools, a trailside repair kit or a first aid kit as your guide will have all of this.
