Are you up to the challenge of the zigzag road up to Box Hill, the iconic section of the 2012 Olympic Road Race? This brilliant route follows pleasant country roads through Oxshot, Stoke D'Abernon, Fetcham, Great Bookham and Westhumble. Test yourself on Bagden Hill before you get to Box Hill, where stunning views preface a magnificent decent though Headley Heath. You'll return to Chessington via Ashtead and Epsom Commons.
