I am new to Mountain biking and have been to Cannock 5 times in the last five weeks doing follow the dog and the monkey trail. Both have been great and I found them good fun without killing myself in the process. Would reccomend anyone to go there. Early in the morning is best.

First time visitors yesterday. Excellent trails,extremely well marked. Hard enough not to be boring for experts, safe enough not to kill Newbies!! Thoroughly recommend it, we will be back!
