Mountain Biking at Cwmcarn ForestMountain Biking at Cwmcarn Forest

Cwmcarn Forest

Do you dream about riding that perfect piece of singletrack? Of twisting up through story-book woodland; the light filtering perfectly through the trees as your legs burn and beg forgiveness, before making a faultless transition into that smooth,flowing descent?

Named after the fearsome wild boar of the Mabinogion legends the trail has it all, testing climbs, swooping descents and demanding technical sections. In 15.5km of almost pure singletrack through a landscape once scarred by coal mining now lives one of Wales' hidden gems. Best of all - the trails can be ridden
