Important camping and parking information Alwinton Area

Mon, 21 Jun 2010 23:49:33 +0100

THERE WILL BE NO OVERNIGHT CAMPING OR PARKING IN THE FOREST AND ABSOLUTELY NO FIRES.

Camping and overnight parking will be at the very entrance to the forest. There is a grass area on the right hand side of the access road that is suitable for parking, motorhomes and camping. This will be signposted. There will be toilets and a skip in this area also. Anyone found camping or overnight parking past this point will be barred from riding and racing and will be banned from NDH for the rest of the season. Please remember no fires and that includes BBQ s this has been the driest start to a summer ever and so fires are going to cause serious damage.

Race daytime parking will be in the same spot as at Kidland events.

To find the venue please follow the Kidland directions.

Thanks Carl
