The track is set up with progressive development in mind and so caters to all abilities with several differing ability tracks. The four tracks are named in the order they were built rather than the order you find them. The order you come across them is Track 2, then Track 4, then Track 1, and finally Track 3. Simple Sherlock.
Membership
- The Foel DH riders organise events and manage the maintenance of the track. The club costs a nominal fee and you must have a membership to ride the track so get in contact with them on their website.
Track 1
- Track 1 was the first track to be built. We don't have actual grading but this is known as the hardest. It has a rooty terrain and is very steep (you need to commit).
Track 2
- Track 2 is the entry-level track.
Track 3
- Track 3 is no walk in the park.
Track 4
- Track 4 is again steep and twisty with small drops and a fun gap jump over a stream.
