Trail centre near castleford

[Twistygit]

Going on a course near castleford and was wondering if there is any trail centres or forests near by? I thought gisburn was near until I googled it and 2 hours away so does anyone know of anything a bit closer

You could shoot down the A1 to Sherwood pines. It's a good trail centre with a jump park and downhill section? It would probably still take you an hour to get there though

Or head north. Darby forest is 1:30 from cas

Probably a bit late now but yes, Wharncliffe is very good. Some great trails, both XC and DH what with it being (almost literally) Steve Peat's back garden.

It`s hardly a forest but you have a ride along t`canal all the way to Leeds, have a couple of pints of ale & pop back - actually some nice scenery along the way. You could pop into Woodrups in Leeds or Kendells in Cas if you need any bits, thus avoiding Evans.

The cycle path from Selby to York is also an easy few miles & not far away.
