Addington Loop
Type: Off-Road Ride
Distance: 9 miles
Difficulty: 3
Route overview: Hayes - Keston - Addington - Spring Park Beech - Hayes.
This is a very quick route that can be done in under an hour. (As it's a loop, you can go around again, again, and ag...) It's easy to follow and has some gentle climbs and a couple of cracking quick downhill blasts at Addington. There is plenty of scope for alternate paths to elongate the route.
