Leith Hill is where people from London and all over the South of England and even farther afield come to ride. They always return. Why? well Leith Hill is the highest point in South East England, that's why with miles and miles of singletrack, wooded routes, technical drops, jumps the lot.. 

 

People come here to cut there teeth on mountain biking as well as to test and hone the most skilled of bikers expertise. Places such as the The Quarry Hip Drop and steep descents like Deliverance still bring a shiver to my spine. Go and enjoy.
