Great place to ride if you're sick of Llandegla and the likes and its hardpack surface.
It's rough, technical and super slippy when it gets wet. Red route is demanding on skill and fitness with steep descents and steep climbs. I'd recommend a lap of the warm up loop before setting off into the first descent. There's also 3 downhill tracks with 2 of them being on the "easier" side and main line being the more technical. You can ride main line on a trail bike no problem but be prepared for a trip to the dentist.
Good points:
Warm up loop. Red route starts on an awesome descent. Serious Roots! LOAM!
Bad points:
Some serious climbs so be warned if you're not into that. Bit on the short side in terms of distance.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
