Footbridge Across the A55

Highlight • Bridge

If busy with pedestrians best to walk across instead of ride

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

3.42 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

4.13 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

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

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.
