Colliers Trail, Forest of Dean

Highlight • Forest

A quite stunning trail for all abilities and contraptions. The trail is excellently maintained, with lots of little off-cuts for skills testing. Perfect for little ones to have a protected, traffic-free bimble through the Forest.

For those with big-league MTB abilities, the Cannop Cycling Centres offers a bewildering variety of downhill and mountain bike trails. Plus a shop and café for relaxing at afterwards. Just bring your body protectors! 😊

Pedalabikeaway Café & Bike Shop

Highlight • Cycleway

Great bike shop and cafe. Super yummy food and good coffee. What more could you want? There is an outside cafe that serves pizza and coffee to go in the summer which is pretty awesome. In the winter there is a lovely fire inside the cafe to keep you warm.

Highlight • Rest Area

Nice shop and cafe with some parking. They carry a good range of gear in the shop and you can end up coming out with more than expected.

Staff are very friendly and the cafe is great with nice coffee and a good selection of delicious cakes.

Sometimes overlooked is the seating at the back of the cafe. Only small but nice place to enjoy your coffee and cake.

Some excellent trails nearby 👍
