Ruislip Lido

Highlight • Rest Area

You can cycle round the Lido but it gets very busy at the weekend and in the summer is packed during holidays on sunny days. Beware of dog walkers with extending leads. It is great to cycle through Ruislip Woods to the Lido if you have a trail bike, but horses use the paths and churn it up after rain so it is almost impassable. The best time to go is very early in the morning in the summer, beautiful, especially if the mist is around.

Woodland Cycle Trail

Highlight • Forest

So annoying that horse riders have been through here, they have plenty of trails in these woodlands- this is a dedicated cycle trail

Ruislip Woods National Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

The ancient woodland here is the largest in Greater London. It feels like a real forest, yet within the city. It is quiet and calm, even when the lido is busy on hot summer days. There is a cafe at the lido for refreshment before, during or after your hike.
