Afan trails

Reviewed by a local rider to Afan

What do you like?

Several trails. Good riding from beginners to more advanced riders.

What could be improved?

No investment in the trails for many years. Feels like the NRW have forgotten this area. Constant tree felling and diversions in place.

Would you recommend?

yes

Top trail centre

It's a genuine trail centre,not a bike park. No uplift, you have to peddle to earn the smiles. Ideal for the ebike riders. Over 100k of trails. From green rookie to black tech. Nearby off piste to find as well

What do you like?

Over 100k of trails. Something for everyone. Single track to jumps in the afan skills park, cafes and bike shops located each end of the valley. Also camping a available at Afan, Glyncorrwg and Brn Bettws.

What could be improved?

Always seems to be tree felling going on (it's a NRW forest so to be expected). .

Would you recommend?

yes

Afan forest trail

I have been coming back again and again for years and it never stops making me smile

What do you like?

Great single track and use of the landscape to create some great trails.

What could be improved?

Looks a bit sparse in places not some of the trees have gone, but that was work that had to be done.

Would you recommend?

yes
