Wild Boar Chase 2021
The Wild Boar Chase is a mountain bike ride in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley using forest tracks, bridleways and short sections of minor roads.
Choose from longer, tougher routes to shorter easier routes.
New Routes for 2021
We will have new routes for all distances for 2021:
All riders cycle all or most of the Small Boar (the 25 mile option) .
The next distance, the Woody Boar (the 31 mile option) stays within the main Forest.
The Hog (the 38 mile option) moves out of the Forest and visits the rim of the Wye Valley.
The Full Boar (the 45 mile option) leaves The Hog, descends to the river Wye, then climbs back up and re-joins the Hog to return to the Forest.

You can change the distance you ride on the day, no need to inform us.
Humbug Chase Mountain Bike Ride for kids – September 2021.
The Humbug Chase is a shorter ride for 8-12 year olds.
It is an accompanied ride with no road mileage and no road crossings.
All riders cover the same distance of approx. 8 miles. If your child has a Mountain Bike why not encourage them to ride the Humbug Chase with other kids their age. They will have great fun, while their entry fee helps raise funds for local good causes.
