Review for Antur Stiniog MTB Trail Centre

Chaz Greenwood:

I have nothing but good stuff to say about Antur Stiniog! The first time I went I was on my own on a midweek day. The welcome I got from reception to the girls in the cafe was amazing, made me feel so much more at ease. The trails are awesome, just awesome! I started off on the blue, made my way up to the red and bits of black. There are routes in the trails to add in and take out bits for variety and your level of competence and confidence. The uplift service was just excellent, I started at 10am, first lift and got totally stuck in, did 10 lifts through the day, when it was lunch time, I made the most of the really cool little jump track. As a female, on my own, and being initially a bit intimidated, I needn't have worried. I ended up having a truly fantastic day, from the other riders, the uplift driver and last but by no means the least to all the staff were all so friendly and such a laugh! I have had absolutely no qualms recommending the place, going back, and even on my own again! All in all totally fantastic, have since been twice more and looking forward to going again soon!

Lots of stuff to sharpen and increase your skills. I sessioned on the blue for the morning, then went on to the red and black as I felt more confident and capable. The uplift service is really frequent, you are never stood long waiting. When the uplift stops for lunch, there is a great jump track right next to the cafe to play on till uplifts start again. The cafe is just brilliant, excellent food and the staff are just ace! There is a bike wash and showers there so you can scrub up before you go home, bonus. Loads of parking.
