Swinley Forest Red trail Map

The Red Trail starts half way around the Blue Trail, so if you feel that you are ready to take on the Red...then head to Red 1 and into the first half of the Red Trail. The Red Trail has really varied terrain including natural woodlands, tight twisty singlestrack, a little more steep in places to the Blue and technical trail features that include steeper berms, longer descents, longer climbs, roots, drops and a couple of nice tables along the way to keep those smiles going!
