Great place for some XC mountain biking. Nothing very extreme so really good for Beginners or youngsters. If you're looking for hardcore downhill or bike park Wales-type trails you'll be disappointed as there is not much in the way of elevation. Cafe on-site and a bike shop too with a jet wash to clean your bike off after your ride. Can get very busy at weekends.

Large & Free car Park off the main road, perfect place to enjoy miles of natural singletrack. Linking with Harlow & Cauldwell there's enough to explore without leaving the woods. The only tarmac is crossing the main road which splits them.

Our official end to the Red as we don't bother with the last two grindy sections, give it some beans so you are up to full speed before the right hook, then pump the berms, then a small climb and trundle up the fire road to the café for a coffee and their legendary bacon cobs

Unfortunately the Forestry Commission have been into Watchwood and removed all the man-made features (jumps) from the downhill runs. However the trails are still rideable & fun, plenty of berms still in place. (July 2021)
