Great ride , some good climbs

It does get busy around the visitors' centre and the Gruffalo trail. However, if you ride up Pale Hill and follow the perimeter of the forest, there are plenty of quiet trails to explore. Keep your eyes peeled for single tracks going through the forest, there lots of off-the-beaten-path routes to follow if you look for them.

Managed by Forestry England, Delamere Forest covers over 970 hectares, networked with trails for walking, running and mountain biking. Follow one of the waymarked trails or make up your own route as you go. Post-run refuelling available at the Delamere Forest Cafe.
