New Forest Cycle Hire
Arrive in Brockenhurst by train to avoid the traffic queues, pick up your bike and before you know it you will be pedalling amid the delights of the beautiful New Forest. The Forest is rightly famed for its wildlife and with many miles of Forestry Commission off-road tracks to explore you are sure of a great day out.
Brockenhurst is located in the heart of the National Park and serves as an excellent base for exploring the southern forest area. All our rides feature a mixture of off-road tracks and quiet roads and are suitable for both family cycling and those wanting to cover a little more ground.
On arrival at
our award-winning cycle hire centre beside Brockenhurst rail station, our staff will help you choose from a selection of circular routes ranging from 6.7 miles to over 23 miles. Another option is to hop on the Heritage Line train to Lymington, and from there board a ferry and take the short crossing to the Isle of Wight for a day’s cycling.
As well as our standard day hire, why not have a look at our One Day Get-Away rides, offering savings and additional options for your day’s cycling in the area.
