Accessible Walks

Take a look at our 12 Easy Walks for some simple circular walks which are ideal for those looking for short walks on well laid paths.

If you have limited mobility, you may consider hiring a mobility scooter whilst in the area to actually get into the forest or to join more able friends and family on some of our great walks. 

The Tramper is an all-terrain mobility scooter to help people with limited mobility access the outdoors. You can currently hire one at two key locations, both of which have one Tramper.

The first location is Forest Holidays, near Coleford, where you can access a choice of two trails - one leading to the popular viewpoint of Symonds Yat Rock. The second hire point is Speech House Hotel, from which you can access the Cyril Hart Arboretum, Speech House Lake, the Geomap at New Fancy, and Mallards Pike Lake - once voted the best picnic spot in the South West. Both are provided through Countryside Mobility.
