Awesome DHcentre

Fred tanner:

Absolutely brilliant trails, amazing uplift. Great fun even when it's chucking it down

Mike Newham :

A great bike park

The trails are awesome, the guys that work there are all friendly and there's a hot shower to be had after a days riding! It's super fast and pretty rough in places but can still cater for the novice rider. We may go to other bike parks but this is our most frequently visited and will remain that way for quite some time!

I've been coming to Antur since Nov 2014 and it is my favourite downhill venue. It can seem a bit imposing to start as there are some very steep and technical sections but the blue run Jympar is a great way in especially if you are new to downhill or have a trail bike. It's quite long with lots of turns and gives you a great introduction to riding on rock as there's nothing on it that will catch you out. Progress to the reds and you'll start to really think about your riding and where you put your wheels, there are plenty of jumps and drops and they seem to be the most heavily ridden. Once you get to the two black runs though this is where Antur really shines... "Black Powder" is fast and flowing and the other, "Y Du" is trickier with some very gnarly features including the infamous Cliff Drop. If you can master that then you are into 30 to 40 seconds of pure jumping fun in the lower field. I've marked down the Trail Variety slightly purely because the trials are all hard packed with rock and slate features. However, within the limited surface you'll find plenty of variety no matter what level you ride at... just don't expect loam or roots. The plus side is that it makes Antur a great Winter destination. I don't think any review of Antur is complete without mentioning the uplift service. There's a fleet of transit minibuses towing Burtech trailers. It's all done on public and private tarmaced road so your bike is not subjected to lots of bouncing around on fireroads. It's also fast and you won't wait long before you're on your way back up the hill. I've done a couple of days tuition with Adrian there and they have been worth every penny. Adrian knows every inch of the tracks and his teaching technique is good humoured yet concise and to the point. If you really are serious and want to progress past rolling down the blacks to really attacking them (as they were designed for) then his coaching is invaluable. All in all I can't recommend Antur enough... it's the friendliest MTB centre I know of and the trails are all fun with plenty of features to help you progress.
