Awesome place to ride from and they have a nice little cafe for afterwards! Bike shop is good too but only open certain times. Lots of parking, I think it's about a quid for the day. The trails are amazing for MTB.... Lots of variety with a mega climb up right out of the card park!

Great mountain biking place. The staff in the caffee and bike shop are friendly. Lot of information about trails are available outside on the information boards. There is a paid carpark in front of the bike centre. Big climb on the begging but it is definitely worth it. There is a big selection of different trails on offer. Beautiful scenery, challenging single track trails and fire roads make a great day out. Definitely a place to visit and enjoy the beautiful Welsh valleys on your mountain bike.

I have been coming to Afan Forest Park, for at least 15 years. It very easily has some of the best MTB trails in the whole of the UK. Glyncorrwg Ponds is a great Campsite with good facilities including a Bike Shop & a lovely Restaurant.

Lovely Cafe, really helpful bike shop. Even a camp site! Facilities are top notch. Trails are pretty good we did whites level which is a good mix including a boardwalk section. We had a great day, and my mate got his wheel mended too

The trails are really nice with the exception for the really annoying gate's at every start and finish of each single track(picture below). Not entirely sure what's the purpose of them except making you ride super not fun and stress. I assume they are there to prevent dirt bikes using the MTB trails, but most of them are so tight that getting a modern MTB with 148 mm axel through them can be a hassle. From this perspective it's the most annoying place I ever ridden. Apart this the trails are really nice and fun with nice view's. Unless you wanna pedal al day avoid Skyline loop. It's 51km 90% of pedaling not much descending and a million of those annoying gate's/fences. But it offers nice view's.

A little gem for being in the middle of nowhere. Cafe sells a fair few options including vegan and sell proper coffee and alcohol. The bike shop isnt massive but is well stocked. The entire setup is really nice and the bike trails are a bonus.

Thanks to the shop and cafe they have provided pre-ride and post-ride from forgotten helmets, gloves and water bottles to much needed sustenance after a long day in the saddle. Great people and always have time for a chat. The walks have also been good for when I have my wife with me as she doesn’t ride. There’s also a campsite next to the mountain bike centre, cafe and shop.

Popped into Afan A Blast (Bike Shop) before setting off. The staff there are very welcoming and have fantastic mtb knowledge as well as knowledge of the trails. Then headed off for my first time ever on White's Level, what a trail. Its a bit rocky and techy in places, but it pays off with the long flowy sections. Absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to come back when the weather is good to enjoy the views even more so than I did today in overcast conditions.
