Adult cycling lessons at Osterley

Do you want to ride a bike but don’t know how? Or maybe you want to improve your cycling skills and confidence because you’re nervous about going out on the road?

Then come along to one of our group cycle sessions at Osterley on Thursday lunchtimes. The beginners’ ride is from 12 to 12.45pm, and our improvers’ group goes from 1 to 2pm. Bikes are provided and the sessions are free if you live or work in Hounslow borough. There’s no need to book, although places are limited and you’ll need to arrive a few minutes before the start so that the group is ready to set off on time.

Something for Everyone

Make lasting memories with your little riders by taking a cycle as a family at Osterley. We have beautiful traffic-free trails and bikes of all sizes to enable you to get active as a family. We have bikes for all ages, including balance bikes for toddlers, though we are currently only able to hire out the trailers for small children on Sundays. 

Add another dimension to your day at Osterley by viewing the estate from two wheels. The thrill of visiting somewhere historic and getting active in the outdoors combine for a memorable visit.

If you are an experienced cyclist, use Osterley as an alternative venue to enjoy your time on two wheels, taking in our fun trails. Or change your commute to get away from the crowds and take in wonderful views of this historic estate along the way.

Multi-use trails

In 2017 we resurfaced the majority of pathways at Osterley and also created our new cycling skills area and trails, a project supported by Sport England and London Marathon Charitable Trust. Click here to find instructions on how to navigate the trails. Our multi use trails are suitable for walkers, wheelchair users, runners, cyclists and in places, horse riders. Please therefore take care and respect other park users when enjoying cycling around the estate.
