WelshTrail Centre Experience
Ride description
Purpose built trail centres provide intermediate to advanced mountain bike riders with an adrenaline fix of trail excitement without the bother of map and compass or even planning a route. The trails wind their way cleverly around hillsides, providing cheap thrills for little climbing expense.
Our guided Welsh Trail Centre Experience days provide individuals or groups of MTB riders with the safety net of an experienced guide, first aider and bike technician all rolled into one, to make sure your day goes off without a hitch.
