Altre informazioni:
This stretch of the North Downs is good walking country, with flower-sprinkled grasslands, quiet shady woods, and an exciting splash of history to add just a little bit more colour. Sitting proudly at the top of the Hill is the 19th-century Reigate Fort; the fort commands a historically defensive position looking out over the weald towards the South Downs, reminding us all of Reigate Hill’s past. A lovely spot too for family picnics and games, the chalk downland is home to many rare wild flowers and insects, including the vibrant Adonis Blue butterfly. To the east, Gatton Park nestles serenely into the North Downs. The lush pastures, mighty trees and sparkling lakes, designed by Lancelot Capability Brown, are stunning.
