FAMILIES can take in the Wyre Forest scenery during a mountain bike treasure hunt.

The Royal Forester pub in Callow Hill has joined forces with Far Forest Primary School, to hold the festive family mountain bike treasure hunt on Monday, December 27.

Bike riders will set off from the Wyre Forest Visitor centre and follow a set of clues.

Sean McGahern, pub landlord, said: “We are absolutely delighted to once again host the festive treasure hunt. Having four children myself, I understand how hard it can be to keep them entertained at Christmas. We're more than happy to again support Far Forest School's Parent Teacher Association (PTA) by holding this very festive family event."

Kerry Beard, the school’s PTA chairman, said: “The school is overjoyed Sean has once again agreed to hold this fantastic Christmas family event and we would like to extend our thanks to both Sean and all the team at The Royal Forester for helping us again raise much-needed funds for the school."

People can register for the bike ride, which starts at 10.30am, at the pub, on 01299 266286.
