About

Calling wheelchair users, off-road mobility equipment suppliers, wheelchair rambling enthusiasts, access groups and walking and cycling groups.

Join specialised staff from a variety of accessibility organisations and try out Mountain Trikes, Trampers and Terrain Hoppers in the beautiful woodland setting of Whitestone Picnic Site near Tintern.

We recognise that access to suitable equipment is a huge barrier, so we are holding a Welcome to Off Road Wheeling Day to bring together wheelchair users, off-road mobility equipment suppliers, wheelchair rambling enthusiasts, access groups and walking and cycling groups.

Join in the conversation about how we can make the National Landscape more accessible and work towards our long-term aspiration of setting up an accessible hub, where you can hire an all-terrain vehicle, with training and mechanical support on hand.
