How long do the trails take to ride?
All the trails built so far take between 1 hour to 3 depending on how fit and skill level.

 Are they suitable for novices?
Only the Penhydd trail would be suitable for total novices and there are sections of that you’ll probably have to walk if your not sure. The Wall and Whites Level trails are much more technically challenging, with the Skyline best left to the fit and experienced mountain bikers.

 Is there enough riding for a whole weekend?
Absolutely! Even the super fit & experienced riders will have their work cut out to complete all the Afan Forest trails in one weekend. The epic Skyline 46km will keep the average rider busy for an entire day.

 Is there a café?
Yes and you are spoilt for choice with cafés at both Afan Forest Park Visitior Centre and Glyncorrwg Mountain Bike Centre. Ring to check seasonal opening hours.

 Do I have to pay to park?
Yes you have to pay £2 for all day parking, but there is a car park attendant who will look after your car and give any info you care to ask for. Much more friendly than a machine!

 Is there something for the family to do while I’m off riding?
Yes! There is a small museum and various nature walks with a children’s quiz trail at Afan Argoed or try a spot of fishing up at Glyncorrwg Ponds.

 Is there any local “Nitelife” besides badgers and owls?
Not near the centre, but there are some nice pubs close by that serve some really good food. For nightlife you need to travel to Neath or Swansea which both have good reputations for the livelier side of things.
