Cycling in forests
There are many recreational facilities for family cycling and mountain biking in several forests. Cycling in forests is also free from the dangers of dense traffic.
Cycling events
Anyone wishing to organise a cycling based event must arrange this through the forest recreation manager based at Inishkeen House, Enniskillen.
Organised cycling events may be held if there is a licence agreement and upon submission to Forest Service of a satisfactory management plan.
A fee will be charged for licence agreements to cover staff time involved in site meetings. An administration fee is also payable.
Family cycling
Castlewellan Forest Park
Newry, Mourne and Down District Council develop and manage recreation in Castlewellan Forest Park.
Castle Archdale Forest
Enjoy a cycle along the Lough Erne shore. There is lots to see and do within the forest and the neighbouring country park as the cycle route runs through both areas.
