This page lists our current work priorities and projects. It's difficult to come up with a single prioritised list of work as much of it could be done in parallel if we had enough volunteers to take part and lead build days. For more details take a look at the forum.

1/ Bring the red route up to a basic standard

This work is currently under way. We have identified 8 sections on the red route that are worn out and muddy. We are renewing the existing trail surface to bring it up to a basic standard. Work like this will be required on an ongoing basis as part of a separate maintenance regime.

2/ Green route improvements

The current green route does not meet FC standards so a modified route has been proposed. The existing trail may be repaired to allow it to be used again in future.

3/ Install new trail signage

Again, to meet FC standards new trail signage needs to be installed.

4/ Bring the black route up to a basic standard

Similar to what is currently happening on the red route. The worst sections of the black will be identified and the trail surface and drainage improved.

5/ Pump track

This special project could be worked on separately. A location close to High Lodge has been agreed. We now just need stone to build it, as the sandy ground is unsuitable.

6/ Improve red and black routes

We want to add technical interest and difficulty to the red and black routes. There are a number of areas where the trails don't make full use of the landscape. These improvements could be treated as separate projects with work on going with other tasks such as general trail maintenance.

7/ Blue route improvements

Improve the blue route to make it more interesting for families and youngsters.
