Trails)
Teversal Visitors Centre, Nottinghamshire

Teversal Trails/ Pleasley Trails - The Early years (1990's).
Teversal Visitors Centre was a good base to start in the mid 1990's boasting 11 different
footpaths or trails of
varying lengths and interest open mostly to walkers and some cyclists. Part of the trail
is on the site of the old Silverhill Pit buildings and colliery houses
which where demolished in the mid 1993.
Footpaths Note: Some parts of these footpath routes in this
paragraph may have Steep hills with steps, rough surface and exposed tree
roots and not entirely suitable for the novice person or children to cycle
on. The 5 mile nature trail includes the Rowthorne Trail to Pleasley Pit. Lady Spencer's walk is 9 miles and includes
Hardwick Estate. The three village walk takes you to Ault Hucknall, the burial
place of Thomas Hobbes through to Rowthorne and back to Teversal Village. The
Pleasley Vale walk includes the area where Florence Nightingale's father
owned the mills. Hardwick Hall is just a couple of miles away.
Cycle Routes

trails have changed over the last few years, most noticeably in May 2007

Teversal trail to Pleasley country park gets a revamp with new resurfacing
and widened and reclassified as a multi user trail and renamed Teversal
Track. The Skegby Trail originally a cycle path in the mid/late 90's only as
wide as a single track footpath has also made wider and newly resurfaced
