KIELDER ADVENTURE RIDING EXPERIENCE

15th & 16th August 2026

Because everyone deserves to experience riding in Kielder Forest!

The Kielder Adventure Riding Experience returns!  Join us as we head to our favourite forest in the UK for endless off-road riding, jaw dropping scenery, and big bike friendly forestry trails.

This is not a rally.  This is not a competition.  This is purely a weekend to enjoy riding some of the best forestry tracks the UK has to offer.

Choose to either join guided ride outs through the forest, or partake in a full weekend of roadbook navigation training. Either way, riders will get the chance to experience the magic of riding the seemingly endless tracks in this stunning forestry area.

ENTER HERE

Get ready for two days of off-road adventure riding through some of the UK’s most remote wilderness.

With a high percentage of off-road and trail riding, which is 100% suited to the “big” adventure bikes, you will be able to ride in areas of Kielder forestry that are really off the beaten track and only authorised for motorcycle use for RallyMoto events.

It is a remote area and just what your adventure bike was made for.

RallyMoto and Forestry England have worked together to create this special motorcycle event.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

This is an intimate two-day, adventure riding event whereby you may choose one of the following options:

  • RIDE ONLY:  Join a guided ride through the best parts of Kielder Forest.  No navigation equipment required, simply follow the leader and enjoy the terrain, the landscape, and two epic days in the saddle.
  • ROADBOOK TRAINING:  Start from the very beginning with classroom based lessons then test your navigation skills by riding  real roadbook routes through the forest.  Riders will follow roadbooks provided on the digital roadbook app.

Entries are strictly limited so everyone can receive personal assistance and attention when needed.

Entry Fee:  £245.00

Includes:

  • Guided ride outs in small groups through the best riding areas of Kielder Forest.
  • Ride outs led by long term RallyMoto ambassadors, who will cater for all levels of off-road rider.
  • A friendly, sociable and supportive environment.

OR

  • Roadbook training sessions, from beginners to advanced.
  • Advanced roadbook training on day 2 for those who are ready.
  • Specially prepared routes through the forest – expect around 150+ kms each day.
  • Training provided by seasoned roadbook navigators.
  • A friendly, sociable and supportive environment.

Bikes and Tyres

The Kielder Adventure Riding Experience has been specifically designed for the bigger adventure bikes and the routes have been created with this in mind. The course 100% suitable for dual sport tyres. The organisation team will have ridden all the courses prior to the event to check its suitability.

Fuel and Range

The Kielder Adventure Riding Experience is in a remote part of the UK and the bikes taking part will need a range of 160km (100 miles) on a single tank of fuel. Most of the big adventure bikes are capable of this. All fuel stops will be at commercial filling stations and marked on the course.

Digital Navigation

For the roadbook training, you will need to ensure you have a suitable device mounted to your bars (Android tablet or large phone).  For more info click here.

 

 

FAQ’s

If any riders have any questions please email [email protected] or call 0770 392 4448.

Will my new bike be OK as I don’t want to damage it?
We would consider the tracks and back roads we use to be perfect for the “Big” adventure bikes that are able to cover distance and handle light off road. The courses are designed for minimal damage to your bike. Of course we cannot guarantee everything as it is a bit of an adventure after all.  We will be sure to notify you if a particular route is especially challenging and if you would be better off on off road biased tyres.
Is my bike suitable?
Our routes are tailored for adventure bikes, as often there are long distances covered and the off road sections aren’t too technical.  Some of our more ‘extreme’ events can be ridden on smaller enduro and trail bikes, but overall our aim is to provide riders of big bikes a places to ride and experience what their adventure bikes are really capable of and actually made for!  There are many places available for enduro riders in the UK, however routes suitable for taking big bikes off road are less common, hence why we aim to provide for this realm of riders.
Do I need to bring fuel?
No. Definitely not, the route passes commercial fuel stations and you should refuel here. Maximum distance between fuel stops is 80-100 km (50 – 60 miles). Just make sure you are fully fuelled at the start.
Do I need my own roadbook equipment?
For the guided ride outs you do not need any navigation equipment.  For those doing the roadbook training, you will need an android tablet or smartphone to load the digital roadbook.
