    Tips

    This off road trail tackles one of the Brecon Beacons’ classic MTB routes; the Gap. This is the pass between Fan-y-Big and Cribyn, topping out at 600 metres above sea level. It's a technical trail that will test you, whether on a gravel or mountain bike. Be prepared for a bit of hike-a-bike near the top where it gets really chunky!
      The Gap is a classic. Climb high into the Brecon Beacons with amazing scenery. Some steep stony steps and rocks at the top and then roll downhill towards Talybont.

        Would recommend a bike with suspension, rigid is doable but not the most comfortable way.
