Trail Diversions at High Lodge
Walking and cycling trail diversions at High Lodge
As of 27 January 2025 there are trail diversions currently in place at High Lodge, affecting some of our walking and cycling trails. This is due to ongoing work on our new Pedal & Play trail, as well as ongoing harvesting work.
- Walking trails - Fir trail partial diversion. Please follow all diversion signage for your safety. No other walking trails affected.
- Play and activities - Sand Play and Sound Trail both open. Gruffalo Party Trail closed due to new trail being installed.
- Cycle trails - Shepherd (green), Lime Burner (red) and Beater (blue) are partially diverted. Please follow all diversion signage for your safety.
- Pump Track - Closed during the week due to Pedal & Play construction work. Pump Track will be open at weekends.
- Other information - Please take care on FR12 due to construction traffic. Please follow all signs and instructions.
