About

Ancient Sherwood Cycle Route

Distance: approx. 20 miles (32 km)

The Ancient Sherwood Route starts at Sherwood Forest Art and Craft Centre. It takes you through Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve into woodland and on to the National trust owned Clumber Park returning on a circular route.

Approximately 20 miles long, the route is designed to take a day when incorporated with planned stop offs for refreshments, activities and enjoying the attractions. There are three road crossing points en route and a further two within Clumber Park.

The terrain is mainly flat and pathways are generally maintained. There are occasional inclines which require some physical effort.
