There are many miles of paths and tracks through Moors Valley Country Park and Forest. You are welcome to walk on any of these paths and to cycle on many of the gravelled paths. To help you enjoy the hundreds of hectares of park and forest several walks and cycle routes have been waymarked.

Walks
The walks are shown on the map with a solid line of colour and on the ground they are waymarked with a round post with a band of colour appropriate to the route around the top. The walks range in distance from 3/4 mile to 5 miles.

Cycling
The best paths for cycling are waymarked; there is a central 2-mile circuit with the option to take three additional loops to extend your ride to 6 miles. You are welcome to bring your own bikes or hire one from the cycle hire centre.
The routes are shown on the map with dots and on the ground they are waymarked with round posts with the appropriately coloured band on it.
