Darwen blackburn mtb trails

Hi anyone kno of any good trails around darwen area ??

All you need is an OS map, then take your pick! You can’t go far wrong. Keep an eye out for posts on the Monday Night pub rides. Darwen has been a destination for a couple, with Mr Sparkle of this parish guiding.

i know rivvy better but plenty of trails around there and some locals on here

Ok cool would be good to find new trails new ppl to ride with and rivvy sounds good i might look into that 🙂

Bladz 80 – I live in Darwen there’s a few routes you can do. Head up to Darwen Tower and there’s loads of scope from up there. Can go to Roddlesworth, Rivington, There’s stuff round Entwistle woods.

I live near the railway station and head up Cranberry lane and head to Graining wood then up to Edge lane and Entwistle. Nice easy loop. Up belgrave road to the tower and head whichever way I fancy. Giz a shout if you want to come out.

Ok cool that cranbery lane one to graning wood sounds brill i never even new ther was anything up ther or entwistle .Only one i found was tower drop down to tockles road way and its,getting boring also on my tod lol an becouse i have no transport thay have to be pritty local .yea,would defo get on that i live just near sainbrys

It’s nowt spesh but it keeps you off the A666 on the way to Enty. If your on strava add marc g and have a look on my ride maps. I use it as link. There’s some little runs in Enty woods. Cadshaws a good work out then either up to the tower or past Belmont reservoir up stones bank road to cox green road, then Tora manor (turton Golf club) then back round Entwistle. Off most of this week. If you have facebook add us and message me if you fancy a poodle. Marc bwfc Gardner

I keep meaning to update these maps with more trails, but for now this may help:

Local Trails

As mentioned above, keep an eye out for the Monday Night Pub rides which are very good and will introduce you to a lot of local trails.
