    Not a huge amount of trails but enough for a few hours. Some nice single track with a bomb hole and a few steep scree descents. Well worth a trip if you are in the local area. I was onlt there for a couple of hours and I am sure there is a lot more to find.

    I agree with Wallace, was good for a couple of hours, seemed to be a lot of different single track trails, but quite over grown as lack of riders. Its only 10 mins from home so a good local ride. Would like to know if anyone knows any where else near Tamworth worth trying

    towards baddesley/bentleywoods/ridge lane and hartshill there are a lot more paths/ bridleways/quarry tracks and based around some quite hilly terrain along the atherstone ridge.
