CWMDOWN MTB UPLIFTS
CWMCARN - SOUTH WALES
Cwmdown is one of the original mountain bike uplifts in the UK. Running since 2006, we are here to run you guys to the top of the DH & XC trails at Cwmcarn in South Wales.
With a 250m vertical drop through the epic Cwmcarn landscape, all-weather trails and year round uplift, it’s often seen as one of the definitive UK downhill destinations. Graded Extreme, it offers some steep, technical and challenging trails, whilst still having options for the more intermediate riders.
For regular updates, take a look at our Facebook , instagram & Vimeo pages.
Local rider Rob Williams shows us a full run, top to bottom on Y Mynydd DH track here at Cwmcarn in South Wales. Trail sections featured in this run are Ace of Spades, Endor, then Top Gun to finish. This was after some heavy rain, so you can see the trails here are suitable all year round, come rain or shine. Take a look on our Vimeo channel for more videos.
