About MinorTaur
The MinorTaur has quickly become the most popular trail at Coed y Brenin. It's a great fun introduction to mountain biking for a wide range of ages and abilities and is unique in that it can be used by riders with a disability using adaptive mountain bikes.
The trail is built in 3 loops, which get progressively longer, so you can choose the distance you want to cover. There are plenty of fun features, including stone steps, table tops and fantastic swoopy berms. Remember to treat with caution on your first ride, then session the sections to improve your skills!
Look out for the shiny hoof prints that give you a clue that there's a MinorTaur about!
This trail was built as part of the Eryri Centre of Excellence Project which has been part-funded by the EU’s Convergence European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Assembly Government.
