Fantastic

Review:
The 1st climbs just seems to go on and on but once you get up there and sample the downhill section then it's well worth it.

The energy section with the table tops was immense. Overall very technical, very fast and very knackering!

Plain brilliant!

Review:
Just got back - lovely 4 hours on the Skyline trail. Missed a sign and got slightly lost as we had our heads down for a climb just after missing a sharp turn. The final section, Jetlag, is awesome and the climbs are wonderful - the first one gets you well warmed up for the day?! A great cross country ride full of excitement. The trail reminds you about what Wales is all about.

Summary:
Not To Technical, Suited to Those Making the Step Up from Blue

Review:
If you're just getting into MTB or making the step up from blue graded trails, then this is the destination for you.

It starts with a fairly big climb (some singletrack, some fire road), then a series of downhills with one longer climb in the middle.

It can be a susceptible to being a bit boggy in wet conditions.

There isn't anything particularly technical about the trail and it is the easiest of the Afan trails.
