Explore the Forest of Dean with an off-road mobility vehicle
Visitors with permanent or temporary limited mobility can hire one of two ‘Walking with Wheels’ trampers through the Countryside Mobility Scheme, that is supported by Forest Voluntary Action Forum and part-funded by Foresters’ Forest National Lottery Heritage funded programme.
Trampers are off-road mobility scooters, which are easy to use and able to tackle a range of surfaces and gradients come rain or shine. You do not have to be registered disabled to hire a Tramper.
Our Trampers are suitable for exploring:
- Symonds Yat Rock, leading down to the River Wye at Symonds Yat from Forest Holidays
- Cyril Hart Arboretum
- Mallards Pike
Maps of the routes will be provided when hiring.
Hire rates
Price per Tramper: £2.50 per hour.
If you are not already a member of Countryside Mobility, becoming one is quick and easy and will be part of your induction (£2.50 for 2 weeks, £10 for 1 year). You can then use Trampers at around 50 other beauty spots around South West England.
Info and booking
Anyone wishing to use a Tramper must be over the age of 14.
Please contact the hire sites directly for bookings.
Booking
Pre-booking is highly recommended to avoid disappointment and for a smooth hire experience.
