This route crosses walking paths at various points, with large stones marking these exits. Please ride cautiously across, respecting and giving way to other woodland users. Anticipate meeting walkers and dogs along any sections of path.

The Gert Lush trail is part of the Yer Tiz trail in Leigh Woods. Yer Tiz is a ‘moderate’ Blue grade narrow and engaging trail weaving it’s way through the woodland. The trail features berms (banked corners) rollers (bumps) and drops and climbs. The trail requires a mountain bike but is suitable for relative novices to off-road cycling.

In places the trail splits for a short distance, giving an option of a more difficult challenge - the Gert Lush Trail. There is also a two-way section of trail from the car park creating a northern and southern loop.
