The Red
- This mountain bike trail is graded red and is 7.5km (4.6 miles) long. This is mostly single-track, a lot of which is off-camber, rooty and with some decent climbing and steep gradients. Expect some kickers, jumps and small drops.
The Blue
- The blue is 6km (3.7 miles) long. It is an all-weather trail with 65% single-track with fun berms and rollers as well as blue and red drop options. Some of the singletrack sections are deerstalker, swoopy and lumberjack.
Wiggly Worm (Lite Blue / Green Track)
- Just opposite where the blue final descent ends (the official end) there is a 300m but fun 'Lite Blue' / greengraded track.
Skills Area - Bike Base
- There is a skills area and jump line at Benham Bushes (runs from the end of the Light Blue trail to the car park).
Kids Track - Bike Base
- In March 2023 work also started on a new mini wheel, kids track for balance bikes by the Visitors Centre.
Natural Trails
- The park is situated on the south downs way which runs through the middle of the forest. It offers great access to the rest of the South Downs. Two specific non-waymarked trails start in the park and lead out into the surrounding countryside. These use the rights of way networks and some public roads. Queen Elizabeth 16 km (10 miles), Meon Valley 16km (10 miles). For more information on these routes and others in Hampshire, a pack of 'Off Road Cycle Trails' is available from the Visitor Centre. There are also a number of downhill / enduro style natural trails around the area.
