Review for Nant yr Arian Mountain Bike Trail Centre

Surferreg:

"Nant Yr Arian; a great ride, so much to choose from, stunning scenery with plenty of miles. There is enough here to test the experienced rider, or for the new rider to improve their skills. Dip into the single tracks or loose yourself out in the wilds. Just make sure to get back to the centre in time to watch feeding the stunning Red Kites with a cup of tea and a home baked fresh cake. What a place!

Epic trails and single tracks. Stunning views and lots of variety. Plenty of cross country to tap into means you don't see too many people on your ride. The whole thing is linked together with and some sweet well marked, well built and well maintained single track sections. The notorious "Leg burner" is a bit of a haul, but you do learn to love it as the scenery opens up the higher you climb. The beauty distracts you from the burn. I have been riding around here since before the trails were put in and now I am lucky enough to work at the centre. It means I get to see riders come whooping back down "High as a Kite" covered all in mud grinning from ear to ear. I love to see the knowing smiles of a hard earned shared experience as they sit down to enjoy their pot of tea and excitedly chat about their adventures. The centre has a great cafe with good choice of quality food. Once you have tried Nant Yr Arian you will definitely want to come back!
