Tony Fisher:
Good Trail for those starting out
Overall excellent xc trail, superbly maintained by FC and volunteers, well sign posted trail that's a real mix of climbing and descent, only really suitable for the most confident and fittest of children under 10(Lanhydrock much more suitable for younger riders)
What do you like?
Good trail for those wanting to get into mountain biking as blue trail can be ridden by anyone with reasonable level of fitness and a bit of nerve, lots of areas where can improve riding skills and some really enjoyable sections( the whip and the end section are pretty good for any level and Dailed in Dave down to bridge is just a flat out blast) small red section for more confident riders, not too difficult if you can handle steep and rocky switchbacks(and the climb!!) good parking, toilets, cafe etc... can be combined with Lanhydrock trails to make a total of 14ish miles of trail and about 4 miles of tarmac for a fair day of riding with some great scenery too if you take your eyes off the trail for a couple of seconds
What could be improved?
Very busy at weekends, needs longer downhill and more red trail areas, really only one trail so gets repetitive, would be nice to have second blue loop running around outside of first
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
