Embark on an easy mountain biking adventure through the picturesque South Derbyshire countryside with the Foremark Reservoir to Robin Wood loop. This route offers diverse scenery as you pedal past the tranquil Foremark Reservoir, a 280-acre nature reserve, where you can enjoy views of open water, woodland, and heathland. You will cover 16.6 miles (26.6 km) with an elevation gain of 816 feet (249 metres), typically taking around 1 hours and 59 minutes to complete.
When planning your ride, be aware that the trail can become very muddy during winter months, with some sections potentially turning into a quagmire in adverse conditions. While generally easy, you might encounter some steep climbs that can be challenging, especially when the ground is wet. Parking is often available near the starting point in Ticknall village, which also provides options for refreshments after your ride.
This loop takes you through a varied landscape that is part of The National Forest, offering a unique blend of natural environments. Beyond the reservoir, you will also explore the varied terrain of Robin Wood, where you might spot local wildlife. The combination of open water, dense woodland, and heathland makes this route a notable experience in the region.
