When I arrived my bike was prepped and ready. I was taken through the gear settings and shown where everything was.
I had forgotten my own helmet so was offered one with the bike.
Thestaff all know their stuff and are very helpful!

The experience was thrilling and quite horrifyingly fun and I really enjoyed this sporty activity towards getting happily exhausted for the night afterwards. I had fun despite getting used to using enough strength for the rougher trails but overall, 5 out of 5 for me! If you love twirling around snakey paths and flying down hills, you don't need to think twice for this place.

Mud, Smiles & Perfect Rides at Swinley!

We had an absolutely brilliant time at Swinley Bike Hub! The kids had a fab day — the whole place is perfect for families. The trails are really well-designed, with great flow and plenty of variety, and the downhill sections were a big hit with all of us. The bike hire process was completely flawless — quick, easy, and super friendly.
If there’s one thing the place is missing, it’s a small changing room for riders to get into clean clothes after ending up muddy from head to toe :)
Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back! 🚴‍♂️✨

Fantastic singletrack tour

Fantastic singletrack tour session with Simon. As a beginner I got a ton of guidance and comfort which was key to discover and appreciate this exciting sport in the beautiful setting of Swinley forest. Highly recommended

Great time had by all!

Swinley provided us with bikes and an instructor for a morning of trail riding. We had an introduction to riding the bikes and getting used to the brakes, gears and trails in the area closest to the Bike Hub before heading further afield into the forest. The whole group, ranging in age from 11 - 16, had a great time and loved the opportunities to test their cycling skills off road.
