The lennox forest project currently has approval for ‘bike park’ areas within the forest. There is no agreement as yet that trails are to be built or how they are managed within what’s been accepted.
It’s a community driven project that aims to provide better facilities for users and promote economic grown within the Campsie area.
Ideas around the table include the skills bike park areas for all abilities, interlinking and graded routes both shared and separate for cyclists, walkers and horses and some form of facilities for them including parking areas. The idea would be to have the area as a focal point for folks wishing to upskill and for schools cycling, community events, nature trails, history lessons, that sort of thing. Would be nice to have a waymarked loop over to CV, but we’ll see what happens.
As for existing trail network, if there’s a path, use it….
If it goes the way of CV, shame, if it’s successful and goes the way of GT/CyB, well we all know what to expect from FC…;-)
