The Adventure at Stiniog is getting bigger and better.

Antur Stiniog is already one of the ‘must visit’ bike parks in Europe and 2019 will see a major expansion with 3 new trails, the transformation of an existing trail into a new ‘jump line’ and an addition of 4.5km of new trail to the existing 7 trails.

The 3 new trails will cover all styles and riding ability.  There’s a new ‘less steep Green flow trail’ aimed at the novice rider and family groups but with more than enough features to keep the experienced rider on their toes.

A new 1.2km Red trail that will be largely unsurfaced to add variety to the trail network.  It will run down the double black ‘east side’ of site and will be constructed to appeal to the trail and enduro bike market.

A new Black trail will link the top of the current Black Powder trail to ‘Bendy G’, one of the newest additions at Antur. This trail will again be unsurfaced and will provide more variation to the trail network with an ‘all natural’ black trail top to bottom.

The final development will be to update and restructure one of the existing trails into a ‘new jump line’ that will include medium sized jumps and drops, along with flowing berms top to bottom and is sure to excite all levels of rider.

The development has been supported by the Tourism Amenity Investment Support scheme (TAIS) from Visit Wales and has received funding through the Welsh Government Rural Communities – Rural Development Programme 2014-2020, which is funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.

Work has already started and all trails will be ready to ride in the summer.  It’s time to discover your limits in 2019 Wales’ Year of Discovery!
