MTB Wellness Routes

We have come up with a series of routes for our Wellness rides that build up in difficulty, but all with some fun and great countryside.

All the routes start at the Three Trees Cafe & Farm shop, where you can park and get refreshments afterwards. Note it is closed on Mondays, but there is a public parking spot immediately next door.

We have 5 routes so far, and you can find them on our dedicated page here. Clicking on a route title will take you through to a detail page about the individual route. There are also Garmin and GPX files to help you navigate the routes.

All inclusive Tuesday short ride

Next week’s Tuesday Short Ride is a special short ride and we will be leading a ride that will include parents and children under 18.

We will be going up onto the Ridgeway, so this is a great chance for those that have been to Croft to go for a longer ride up into the hills.
