Overview

From Whiteways car park, head through Houghton Forest climbing steadily on a good track before taking path NE (Barkhale Wood). From here the route is undulating before descending steeply towards the road up Bignor Hill (3mi). We leave the road again to follow a path across fields to West Burton where we rejoin the road for 0.5mi before a steep ascent on a path up Bury Hill. The route descends gradually for the final mile to the car park.
