King's Wood
King's Wood near Ashford is a large wood offering mountain bikers a range of trails from open fire roads to some fast single track with some challenging sections.
There is no set trail within the woods for mountain bikers, but there are lots of small tracks that run all over the wood for you to explore resulting in different terrain types from hard packed rock to grass.
The woods are also very popular with walkers, so best visited early morning before walkers arrive, so as not to scare anyone and cause animosity.
