Very muddy and slippy at the moment, as to be expected with all the rain we've had. Had to carry bike across stream for a few feet as too big a gap to jump.

Great trail for the whole family. Can relax and cruise or head down and pick up some speed. The full trail is about 7 miles so tough for little ones

Great little hire shop. £20 for 4 hours and decent bikes for the trials around the forest. Don't forget ID

Super fun section of black trail- there are a few technical sections but also some really smooth dirt berms.

Rated as a black trail, suitable for expert mountain bikers, the Ridge Ride Extreme is an extra loop that you can tack onto the red trail or session as you like. It starts with a steep rock garden before a rooty right-hander takes you down a rather natural-feeling trail with a few large roots to navigate. After a flatter rock garden around the next corner, you then hit a smoother, more manicured singletrack trail that flows down the hillside with a series of corners. The way back up is no joke with a steep doubletrack fire road pedal, or should that be push?!

Narly first section

Here you can hire mountain bikes for riding at Haldon Forest Park and enquire about the Segway tours that operate here. It's right next to the cafe, car park, play area and toilets so there's plenty of facilities for all the family. Bike servicing is also offered here, so if your mountain bike could do with a little TLC, it's a great place to come. At the end of the ride, make the most of the bike wash too (a small charge applies), so that's one less thing to clean when you get home!

AKA the Holly Trail. Brilliant on a MTB, mostly rideable on a gravel bike. Look out for the slippery roots and puddles when wet!
