decent run at the end with some decent drops and berms

Coed y Brenin was Britain's first purpose-built mountain biking center and it remains one of the sport's top destinations. Eight purpose-built mountain bike trails start at the visitor center and range from easy trails for families and beginners to technical trails for experienced mountain bikers. Other facilities for mountain bikers include a bike shop and a skills room where you can develop your riding techniques. The visitor center is also the starting point for walking and running trails through the Coed y Brenin Forest Park, as well as orienteering courses and geocaching. Two of the walking routes are suitable for visitors who use an off-road mobility scooter. There are also children's play areas, a café and plenty of picnic tables.

Coed y Brenin forest is managed by Natural Resources Wales. The visitor centre has a large car park, lots of information, a shop, café and toilets. There are several waymarked walking trails from here, as well as miles of forest track and path to explore. Watch out for the mountain biking trails, try not to walk on the bike specific trails.

Cafe, toilets and lots more.

Coed y Brenin is a brilliant base with good parking, a cafe, shop, toilets and several dedicated running trails. There are also walking trails and loads of mountain bike trails. The waymarked running trails are all well maintained and well surfaced. There are several to choose from or you could combine them to make a longer day. Sarn Helen Long 8.4km with 198m of ascent. Sarn Helen Short 4.3km with 97m of ascent. The Half Marathon Trail is 21.8km with 727m of ascent. The Goldrush Trail is 13.7km with 420m of ascent. The shoe test loop is 1.7km with 50m of ascent. You can get maps and guides at the shop or just follow the way markers.

If you're of a certain age, the name Maryn Trail says it all. One of the original old school trails and still one of the best.

Easy going single track .

Black (Severe) grade section of trail on the 'MBR' & 'Beast' trails. This was built back in 2002 for the then new MBR trail at Coed y Brenin. It was featured in the MBR magazine in 2002 and again in 2015 when they came back to re ride it and see how it had developed. It's now quite rocky and techy. A true black section of trail. The flesh has worn off the bones! ie, the original surfacing has worn off the rough stone pitching underneath.
