Ray:
Unique feel to this place
A great croute which adds variety to the UK mtb scene
What do you like?
Really nice red route mostly through deciduous forest, which feels different from most trail centres i've visited i.e. Feels very 'natural'. As mentioned, it is very rooty indeed. Not especially difficult terrain, technically speaking (but tiring). However I rode in the dry but can imagine wet conditions to be challenging.
The castle surroundings add to the experience, and Rik from the eponymous bike shop was very informative and friendly.
What could be improved?
Sometimes the forest route feels like you are riding in circles, but no big deal. I challenge any non-local to keep their bearings on this ride!
If you drive to castle car park you must pay £6, but shouldnt grumble about that.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
