Do you mean Gisburn forest ???

there isn't a postcode for the car park

I can only help with a grid reference - 745550

Type in Tosside, this is the small hamlet where the trails start. You can park in the below pub car park which has a jet wash etc.

The Dog & Partridge Tosside Ltd
Skipton, North Yorkshire BD23 4SQ

01729 840668 ?

Hope this helps.

In case you need it, there's a map of the trails here...

[url= http://www.gisburnbiketrails.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/GisburnBikeTrailsMap.pdf ]Gisburn Bike Trails[/url]

It's a wee bit out of date, as it doesn't show the two most recently added sections - the new singletrack climb we finished on Sunday runs roughly from Point 13 to the green-dashed forest road above it, and thence to Point 15, while the start of the log-ride section is at Point 26.

The map also shows the pub mentioned by [b]RagTi[/b] in case you decide to start from there.

Have fun!
