Muddy Forest Path and Wooden Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

In sections of the woods there are some bridleways that have softer surfaces holding slightly wet mud. These are just typical mountain bike trails though

Tip by

3.82 km

Footbridge Across the A55

Highlight • Bridge

If busy with pedestrians best to walk across instead of ride

Tip by

6.16 km

Muddy Forest Path

Highlight • Trail

I chose to turn around at this point due to the thickness of the mud and the trail surface being bad

Tip by

6.29 km

Muddy Forest Crossroads

Highlight • Trail

This part of the trail was where the surfaces started to get muddy and a bit wet. Mountain bikers are used to these conditions

Tip by

7.00 km

Path Beside Stone Wall

Highlight • Structure

The track gets close to the wall along this section. The surface does have small rock obstacles and becomes a slight challenge

Tip by

7.80 km

Pursuit Coffee & Kitchen

Highlight • Cafe

Great coffee, excellent sausage and bacon rolls and nice selection of cakes. Well worth the haul up the hill from Queensferry.

Tip by

8.57 km

Hawarden Castle

Highlight • Castle

The remains of Hawarden Castle can be seen on the elevated hill, you can ride round one side but there is a high metal fence in place preventing full access all around the castle

Tip by

9.38 km

Hawarden Car Park

Highlight • Parking

This is a free parking car park. Located on the northern side of the trail close to Hawarden Castle
