Two nice red trails and some OK blues in the park below. These are free, volunteer maintained trails so not a full trail center but a lot of fun.

Easy to get to from the M60, two nice flow trails with some decent jumps.

Adam Crawshaw:

great trail to learn on being smooth but easy to learn jumps. took my girlfriend to get back into it and she approved. trail is smooth surfaced and first section is jumpy and second is undulating

smooth, good for beginners and expert alike, fun

It's a great local facilty for those living in the Manchester / Bury / local area, with ample parking. The Park itself (not to be confused with the Phillips Park in Eastland) consists of a blue xc circuits and two red decent trails from the car park. The red trails are well built with some nice features in. I tend to start from the car park, descend on the one of the reds, climb back up the central fire road and descend down the other red - a nice little figure of 8. I think it would be disingenuous to compare this with somewhere like Gisburn or Llandegla. Don't be put off by the relatively low rating, it's a great local trail but not worth a long drive
