I ride this on a regular basis and just keep returning. It is probably the best MTB resource in the country. It has an international reputation and we should be proud to have something like this in the UK. It is suitable for all abilities. There is a charge for parking but 4 hours solid MTB will cost about £5. The trails all have to be created and maintained (many miles) so anybody who says it is expensive they need to ask themselves "how will they be maintained if there is no income for the centre?" Go! take the family, wives, partners, your mates, friends and enjoy a unique really well run MTB activity centre.

4. Llyn Brenig Visitor Centre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 155 reviews
Llyn Brenig Visitor Centre hosts a welcoming cafe with home made cakes and hot food. The Centre also runs a bike hire facility to help visitors explore the extensive track network around the lake. Permits can be bought for fly fishing on the lake, and also to hire fishing boats. The lake is stocked with trout reared on the Llyn Brenig fish farm. Picnic tables and an adventure playground are also available to use. Note that the postcode for the area is large and using a Sat Nav may bring you to the Alwen reservoir, not Llyn Brenig. However, there are frequent brown road signs to help you find Llyn Brenig.

In one way doing a review on Brenig and the Visitor Centre is killing me, it would be great to be Wales best-kept secret however this is one place that deserves the recognition,from the ladies in the Centre who prepare wonderful bacon baps for breakfast, the staff that keep Brenig looking pristine and a special shout out to the unsung heroes who make Brenig special, the guys and girls who work long hours to produce the best boat fishing in the UK, perhaps even in Europe. It's world-class - the world fly fishing championships were held here some years back Keep an eye on the weather, listen to the advice from the fishery shop and ask the staff who are nromally found working on the fish rearing cages or around the resue boat - they know by heart the best drifts to fish and sheltered bays for windy days. This is a must see, must do exoerience

Whatever the weather DangerPoint has something for everyone. We are an independent charity based in Talacre, North Wales. Open local School holidays, please telephone and check before travelling just in case we are fully booked.

With free parking and low entrance fees, this is a great family activity which makes learning about safety FUN!

Visited with my husband and 4 and half year old. What a unique place. Your given a work book to play detective and make your way through a variety of different themed spaces - all educational . EG road safety, internet safety , kitchen safety , bullying etc You have to do various activities or watch short videos in each section then answer questions in your work book. We had the added bonus of it being Easter and there being hidden eggs you had to find in each area to claim a chocolate prize . Although most of it went over my little boys head he still loved it as we did.
