Cycling New Forest

Why choose a cycling holiday?

Cycling has become one of the main reasons for visiting the New Forest to explore the traffic-free waymarked trails.

The Forestry Commission manage and maintain over 100 miles of tracks to provide a safe cycling network which balances the needs of recreation and conservation. You can enjoy safe cycling all year round and you will never feel like the tracks are overcrowded.

Be Eco-Friendly

Enjoy being car free… travel to us by train, we are on the main London Waterloo to Weymouth line and just a short stroll from the train station.

The wonderful folk at Cycle experience are offering an amazing selection of bike hire to our Eco-conscious guests of Cottage Lodge. They will ensure you have a fantastic bike to use at a great price! Our hotel employs many initiatives to be as green as possible so your visit by train is much appreciated. Read more…

Can someone guide us?

One person who is passionate about sharing his love of the New forest cycle network, is Steve Edmed. He is the man behind New Forest Cycling Tours. Steve is a cycling-fanatic. He has extensive local knowledge from many childhood holidays and weekend walking and cycling trips in the Forest. Steve and his wife Rachel have now relocated to the New Forest to live the dream.

At present, Steve is the only cycle leader approved by Forestry England.

Steve is also a fully qualified mountain bike leader accredited through British Cycling and is fully insured and qualified as an outdoor first aider.
