Description
Ysgol Cynfran Pump Track is an asphalt pump track and bike trail in the grounds of Ysgol Cynfran, a primary school on Dolwen Road in Llysfaen, near Colwyn Bay, Conwy. It was built in 2023 by Clark and Kent Contractors for the school's pupils and is a supervised school facility rather than a public riding venue.
The Track
This is an all-weather asphalt pump trail with shaped berms and rollers spaced for progressive riding. The circuit flows, rewarding pumping for speed and smooth cornering through the turns, and is designed to suit a wide range of abilities, from young beginners upwards. Clark and Kent Contractors built it between April and May 2023, after pupils were consulted and chose a pump track as their favourite option.
