Its a footpath from Carter Lane to Market Warsop. It follows the river Meden and goes by the BMX track, worth a lap or two, to get you to the crossing on theA60

Not much elevation around Clumber, but this section of the Robin Hood way through woodland is enjoyable on a MTB especially in the winter. Plenty of natural forest floor (rather than hardpack gravel) which gets a bit muddy & cut-up.

Did this in torrential rain, deep puddles, the sandy gets everywhere , covered in it from head to toe, wet sand and disc brake pads are bad combo.

Now renamed the "Outlaw Trail", the very last section has been remodelled as the start of the Blue (renamed "Robin Hood Adventure Trail") in the opposite direction.

A really nice red trail with nothing to technically, a fair amount of work has been done recently lots of new and upgraded berms now. If you want a longer ride join the blue trail, at the time of writing this the blue trail is being upgraded although not fully open yet. Finally if you go looking there is plenty of off piste.
