The Track
- Blaenau Gwent Council describes it as a 400 metre national-standard circuit, which has hosted national championships and club events. It is a full race layout, with a start hill and four long straights of rollers linked by berms, on hard-packed lanes.
- It is open for individual use and private hire, and qualified instructors are available.
- The park does not allow e-bikes or e-scooters on the track, because their weight and tyres damage the surface.
- The park is grazed, so you may find cattle resting near the track.

Helmets are provided, there are bikes from small to adult sizes, and the minimum height is 109 cm. Prices and times are subject to change, so check the park's website before you go.
