The guide

Where exactly

Take exit from A1 from the north or south for Gosforth Park Racecourse. Enter by main gate and continue past all the racecourse buildings driving east. There is a large car parking area on the left just after the main buildings. The cruising area is in the wooded area at the extreme bottom end of this car park. You can drive in from the Forest Hall side direct from Great Lime Road. If approaching from the East it is the car park on your right immediately you come out of the trees.

Cruisiest spot: All around. I am posting this in December and I found that there was still lots of cover from rhododendron bushes. We were only 5 yards from the road but it was invisible from where we were.

When to go

From about 10 in the morning onwards. I understand it gets very busy in the evenings.

Etiquette

Just wander into the woods and keep your eyes open. Most guys around are looking for what you are! A smile and a nod works wonders!

Safety

A couple of guys stayed in their cars, having a , but that may just be their thing! It is a popular area for general recreation and walking so show a bit of discretion.
