Find women+ MTB groups near you

Our guide to UK women+ mountain bike groups is refreshed, and 26 trail pages now list local groups too.

Trail search has a new Women's groups and sessions filter. Use it with Region to find venues near you where a group rides or coaches. Each of those trail pages shows a ✅ Women's groups and sessions tick and names the groups. The events calendar still has its Women Only filter for anything with a date.

Before rewriting, we read Project FIAS's Gearing Up! workbook, which covers how clubs and venues can make mountain biking more welcoming for women+ riders. We used it as a checklist for our wording and our pictures.

It isn't complete. Is a group missing or out of date near you? Is the filter useful? Let us know using the form at the bottom of the article.

Parkwood Springs Mountain Bike Trails

Under threat

A New Zealand adventure tourism company, Skyline Enterprises, wants to build an attraction with a luge track, chairlift and café on derelict land within Parkwood Springs; it says affected MTB trails would be retained or relocated, and an attendee reports being told at a drop-in that lost sections would be rebuilt like-for-like, though none of this is officially confirmed and the chairlift will not offer bike uplift.
