If you're after some active fun on two wheels, this pump track in Charlton Kings is definitely worth a visit.
It's a dedicated space designed with a series of rollers and banked turns that let riders build momentum without constant pedaling, so whether you've brought bikes, scooters, or balance bikes, there's something for everyone here. You'll see local families and visitors of all ages having a go, from young children just starting out to more experienced riders practising their skills. It's one of those places where you can genuinely feel the energy of people enjoying themselves outdoors.
The facility is relatively modern and unapologetically contemporary, built to get the community active and moving rather than preserve historical interest. Just remember to bring a helmet when you visit.
Charlton Kings itself is a charming village centre, so the pump track sits in a nice spot if you want to combine it with a wander around the local area. It's also very handy for Cheltenham, which is just nearby. If you work up an appetite, you can easily head into Cheltenham proper for more cafes, shops, and to explore its impressive Regency architecture and parks. It's a solid addition to the outdoor activities available in this part of the Cotswolds, and somewhere that genuinely caters to active visitors looking for something different.
