What is this activity?

We offer unique access to a range of specialised cycles in Bushy Park, a beautiful park on the southwest edge of Greater London.

Our hire scheme is available to individuals with special needs, families and special needs organisations (e.g. schools, day centres or clubs for people with disabilities). We can arrange both “one-off” visits for groups or regular weekly sessions.

Anyone, whatever their ability or mobility, can become a cyclist using one of our special cycles and with the aid of a “pilot” who might be a carer, a friend, a family member or one of our volunteers.

We have a recommended route around the paths in the park which is mostly traffic-free and is over four miles long if you choose to do the whole route – see the map of the route.

The scheme operates in Bushy Park out of “The Stockyard” Environmental Education Centre which is located off the A308 between Hampton Court and Hampton.
