The Trails
- Freeride (Single Red Diamond): Fast and flowing, the trail to start your day on, with progressive jump lines leading into the Dragon's Tail.
- Quarry Line (Single Red Diamond): A revamped red with fast berms, lipped tables and endless flow, finishing with a drop back to the uplift pickup.
- The Dragon's Tail (Double Black Diamond): Formerly the Welsh Champs track and once part of the Dragon Downhill Series, with a road jump, big berms, tight corners, roots, drops, gaps and the Caersws tunnel. The Lower Dragon's Tail section, opened December 2025, finishes right at the uplift pickup.
- Scorcher (Double Black Diamond): The steepest and most technical track at Caersws, formerly the NPS track, with steep switchbacks, drops and big jumps. It hosts national-level downhill races.
- Helfare Highway (Triple Black Diamond): The park's hardest jump line, branching off Freeride with doubles, hips and the Helfare step-up across 15 jumps in total.
Trail building continues under Danny Bateman, previously of Revolution Bike Park. Caersws is about 30 minutes from Dyfi Bike Park.
