Love this place. It has a really wide variety of trails for different riding styles and abilities. Only complaint is that we almost wiped out a 5yo kid & his mum stopped a on a blind corner... Not sure this is the ideal place for families 😬

This is a very professionally run bike park. I didn't take part myself but I was at the briefing, and the instructor was very good. My wife is the bike nut. She said, the beginner trails and instructior were very good. By the way she is 65 years old, and slightly mad. While I was waiting i sampled the food and coffee, which was good and not overpriced. There are lots of places to sit, inside or out. The saff are friendly and helpful, which seems to be normal in Wales. I don't think this will be the last time she goes, but I won't be riding with her. A cup of coffee will do me.

We’ve just spent two days at BikePark Wales as a mixed ability group and we’ll definitely be returning. We had Justin as a private instructor on the first day and he taught us all loads and left us with things to work on. Justin was amazing and made our trip so much better, would highly recommend! Rental kit and bikes were all excellent and the staff were all super chill, friendly and went above and beyond.

What a place to ride!!! We stayed locally to ride for a couple of days and had a brilliant time. The trails are more than i expected, loads of time and effort has been put into the trail design and it really pays off with loads of rewards for bravery. I visited with my son and we are not vastly experienced but even we had loads of progression through the trails . The uplift is a standard service taking loads of pressure off to complete runs quickly and this means you can take your time on the Hill. The skills area in the quarry was great to spend some time and it was helpful to try some different features without committing to a trail to learn. Well worth a visit 10/10. Cafe is expensive and roughly £25-£30 for two meals with drinks at lunch time. Card only site - didn’t take cash and that for me is the only downside.

A great day out for mountain bikers. Choose from a huge selection of trails. Something for any experience level. Pay and pedal yourself or pay for the uplift. Great indoor cafe here, clean covered areas to chill, they have a shop, toilets, bike charging area. Read the blurb and come prepared!
