The Ashby Would Trail is a 3.7-mile (6-km) multi-use trail that runs from the restored station at Measham Station to Spring Cottage on the old railway line from Ashby to Neneaton. This multi-use trail is very popular, with many places to visit on the way, including nearby Donisthorpe Woodland Park, which is a 36-hectare former colliery site in the National Forest.
