Mountain Biking

Mountain Biking in Snowdonia

Betws-y-Coed is surrounded by the Gwydyr Forest in breathtaking scenery. It is easily accessible from the A5, A470 or A55 making it a great location to base yourself for a Mountain Biking weekend to remember and Bryn Bella is ideally situated for Mountain Bikers of all abilities.

Bryn Bella is set a very short ride away from the start of the Marin Trail (Gwydyr Trail), Penmachno with its two trail loops and only a short drive from Coed-y-Brenin, the mountain bike Mecca of North Wales. If you are looking for something gentler for all the family to enjoy then you will not be disappointed as the area has some of the most enjoyable forest tracks for you to explore.

With garage parking for your bikes and washing facilities to clean them why not relax afterwards on our sun terrace and relive those big climbs, bigger descents and magnificent views all over again.

Forgotten something or need urgent spares, never fear as Beics Betws are within walking distance of Bryn Bella. Tucked away behind the Post Office their shop is staffed with enthusiastic staff happy to meet your needs be they repairs, spares or hire of some of the latest bikes available.
