Event overview

and we think the valleys surrounding the area are equally worthy of providing some stunning trails to explore by gravel bike. Starting near the village that lays claim to being the birthplace of actor Richard Burton you’ll head into remote countryside riding through parts of the National Forest for Wales passing by abandoned mines, former tramways and disused railways that give a glimpse back into the history of the area.

This event is part of Afan Forest Gravel Epic.

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
