The trail
Penhydd
- Grade
- Red
- Know this
- The way in to Afan's red riding
Penhydd is where most riders meet the Afan Valley for the first time: flowing, rooty singletrack through the forest and a proper introduction before The Wall or White's Level. Approachable, but never dull. Same goes for the stout.
