If, like me, youâve been inspired by team GBâs performance in the velodrom during the London Olympics, you might want to consider bringing your bikes along when you next visit North Wales. Hereâs a couple of places for you to consider. Coed Y Brennin Probably the best mountain biking centre in the UK. Miles and miles of rugged trails with fantastic names like âBeast of Brenninâ, âDragons Backâ and âMinour Tourâ. The trails are colour coded according to difficulty similar to ski slopes. So all abilities can be confident of having a great time. All the trails start and finish from the new eco visitor centre just south of Trawsfynydd on the A470.
