The fastest way for southern riders to get their fix of Wales’s legendary all weather singletrack and serious DH action, Cwm Carn is less than half an hour from the Severn bridge.

Winding up the waterside technical singletrack of the Whyte bikes sponsored Twrch trail with only your breathing, the babbling of the stream and the hum of tyres as a soundtrack, you’d never realise you were minutes from the motorway and the heavy industry heartland of South Wales.
The wild contouring singletrack, rolling and sweeping in and out of forests and vertical valleys sides will keep you totally focused on the trail, but stop and you be looking right out over the Bristol Channel.

The whooped up final descent will push most riders to their limit but Cwm Carn is also the ultimate park and play centre for serious gravity slaves.
The Mynydd Mojo DH track is unique in the UK for offering a year round uplift service (details at www.cwmdown.co.uk).

There’s a purpose built freeride play park, full of jump packs, berms, wall rides and even a complete corkscrew for getting your eye in before hitting the full descent too.

By 2008 the site will have a new all singing, all dancing visitor centre, café and viewing station too, so please excuse us the temporary facilities currently available.
