Tirpentwys Mountain Bike Trails

Description

Tirpentwys Trails can be found in Pontypool in South Wales. They consist of 6 hand-carved tracks which are steep with swooping berms, jumps, and drop-offs.  The trails are called: Bob Gnarly, Bob More Gnarly, Grannies Fanny, Do-Able, Dasher, and Gnarliness. This is a volunteer-managed bike park. The trails are unofficial. 

The Tirpentwys MTB trails are unofficial wild trails and feature steep swooping berms, jumps, drop-offs, and a session area to hone your skills.
