Rogate Downhill B1ke Park Closed

Rogate Downhill Bike Park is an MTB, Downhill, and Freeride site in Rogate near Liss, Hampshire. It has all grading levels for all abilities, so it is progressive in nature. The all-weather terrain made it rideable pretty much all year round. It was part of the B1KE Bike Park network, which also includes Wind Hill, S4P, and Tidworth Freeride.

Closed since April 2026: Rogate Downhill closed in April 2026 for major forestry work, with Forestry England confirming the site would remain shut during redevelopment and planning for its next phase of operation. Full details.

Update, August 2026: The park remains closed and no reopening date has been confirmed. Forestry England has stated that details of Rogate's future operation and management will be shared later in 2026 once a timeline is agreed. B1KE, the site's most recent operator, has signalled it intends to bid to run the site again, but nothing is finalised yet. Check the Forestry England Rogate Woods page or B1KE's Rogate page before planning a visit.

Note: this trail list reflects Rogate Downhill as it operated before its April 2026 closure. The park is currently closed for forestry redevelopment; some or all of these lines may not exist in their previous form once the site reopens. See the update above for current status.

The DH Trails

• The tracks are in two sections, separated by a fire road. There are ten lines on the upper site and ten lines on the lower site. Each has a different combination of drops, berms, rocks, roots and jumps with progressive levels for all abilities. The terrain is quite sandy and so dries fast.
• In the last few years, there has been a revamp of the hill, adding two top-to-bottom flow trails and more tech trails overall.
• For the more advanced riders, there are big road gaps, drops, steep technical runs and large doubles.
• The Lozenge grading used in addition to and within the trail grades is about the Technical Trail Features (TTF's) that the trail includes. This can be drops, steep chutes, jumps (tables or gap jumps), road gaps, and berms.
• A single lozenge denotes small features and indicates a more technical trail than other, more feature-driven lines. Two lozenge trails will contain technical trail features of a medium to large size.
• A trail with a two-lozenge grade MAY contain features that cannot be rolled (i.e. on a black graded trail) but MAY also have a lesser or rollable option available.
• Three lozenge trails have large technical trail features. These will be unavoidable and require suitable ability and total commitment.
