Beddgelert Forest Short Arse MTB Trail

The Beddgelert Forest isn’t one of the MTB hubs of North Wales but still shouldn’t be ignored if you’re after an easier ride.

The Route A short ride with plenty of views of Snowdon, a stop at a lake for lunch (yes, I know it’s only a 10k ride, but one needs one’s pork pies and scotch eggs) and steady riding ideal for the beginner. Make sure you’ve a decent grasp of navigation or you’ll be going ’round in circles!
