Merthyr Tydfil has a great provision for cycling and mountain biking.  There are different routes to suit all tastes and abilities.

Whether you decide to take a route down the Taff trail, or one of our lesser know routes, the fact that you can cycle through the countryside in Merthyr is one of our best kept secrets.

Developments are underway to create a new Gethin woodland mountain biking route and centre of excellence. The bike park at minimum will include a visitor centre, several downhill runs catering for all abilities and an uplift service. We'll keep updating you as the project unfolds.

Should you be new to mountain biking, or want to find out more, the Dolygaer Oudoor Activity Centre has instructors who can help you.  Please contact them on 01685 721751 dolygaer@merthyr.gov.uk
