Rushmere Country Park

Official opening of the extended National Nature Reserve at Rushmere Country Park

A special celebration event has taken place in the Lower Meadow area of Rushmere Country Park to mark the extension of its National Nature Reserve (NNR) area. Newly designated land around King’s Wood and Rushmere will see its NNR status grow from 87 hectares to almost 150 hectares. This recognises the continued partnership working of adjoining land owners Central Bedfordshire Council, the Greensand Trust, Tarmac and the Wildlife Trust. The newly extended space is home to many rare plants and animal species, such as the Barbastelle bat and Purple Emperor butterfly.

LONDONS HIDDEN Trail RUSHMERE????the Matt Jones trails

So yes this is very close to Woburn,riding distance in fact, and that's why I'm drawing your attention to it! So, either catch the train to Leighton Buzzard and chip up the canal, or drive there! The great thing is you've got food, drink and toilets in the visitor centre. So no worries! All you need is some coins for the car park - 3 quid and a day pass from the forest warden, 7 quid, I think, available from the visitor centre. There are a lot more bits to ride beyond the jumps... and you could head up to Brickhill and Woburn. If you look at my Strava you will see all there is to ride. It gets busy after 10am until about 3pm peak season at the weekend. Looking forward to seeing the superstars who can hit these jumps!

Mitch Warren on Strava:
The most important thing is this the Matt Jones video location that you can ride its change a little for the better

My first attempt of the trails at Rushmere, and my first attempt at proper mountain biking. If nothing else, watch from 5:25 until the end for the most pathetic crash you'll ever see!!!
