Ride Details

The Dragon’s Back is the longest Red Trail at Coed-y-brenin and paralells The Beast in places. So if you’re between grades, you can always try a quick section of The Beast and return onto the Dragon’s Back if you want. At over 30km, this should take a good few hours to complete.

Base Summary: Coed-y-brenin – Snowdonia

Coed y Brenin was the UK’s first purpose built trail centre, and following a revamp in 2013 remains one of the best in the country. With trails ranging from the Black – Beast, to easier Blue routes such as MinorTaur and family friendly green Yr Afon, there’s something for all abilities. You can also head off on the many miles of forestry tracks, which are as easy as it gets.
