FAQs

Can I choose which trail to ride?

Absolutely. You can also chat with Charlotte to discuss the sort of trails you prefer and she can suggest the most appropriate trails for you and your group.

For example, would you like nice open tracks or some twisting dense forest trails; some challenging hills or more gentle terrain; yes/no to water crossings. We are very fortunate to have so many to choose from and look forward to sharing them with you.
