Silverhill Wood 'Novice' Ride

An approx 4 mile long entirely off-road route, forming a circuit around Silverhill Wood. Broad trails are mostly tree-lined and undulate, affording views across the surrounding countryside from positions of elevation. Points of interest along the way include lakes, populated by waterfowl, and the statue of ‘the Miner’. With surfaced going throughout, this is a walk and trot only route.

Worth noting:

Parking is suitable for trailers and compact lorries, HGVs may find the entrance tight.

Trails are hardcore surfaced and may be stony

It is likely cyclists, walkers with dogs, buggies or off road wheelchairs may be encountered on the trails.

Unfortunately, unauthorised motorcycles are sometimes encountered.

Under 18s are welcome, but on a first visit must be accompanied on the ride by an adult rider. All horses and riders must have their own BHS Gold or equivalent Public Liability Insurance. Group size is limited to 6+guide. Places cost £38.50 and can be booked using the 'find tickets' button. Please message for more info.
