Bartley Green

Not cycled for a while and looking for an easy way to get back in the saddle? Fancy a fun way to get your friends or kids riding? Our Easygoing rides are great for building confidence for all abilities and ages along relaxed, mostly traffic-free routes. They’re up to six miles long, with a gentle pace of around six miles an hour. This three and a half mile ride follows 500 year-old hedged lanes into the beautiful Woodgate Valley Country Park. Set in 450 acres, it houses many different habitats. With a mixture of mature hedgerows, meadows, woodland, small ponds and the Bourn Brook running right through its heart, it offers a varied terrain and a rich landscape to explore. The hay meadows in summer are full of buttercups which create an amazing sight. Originally a mosaic of farms and smallholdings, the park has retained much of its rural character. You may even spot woodland birds such as woodpeckers and tree creepers along the way creating the perfect family ride out.
