The Marin Trial is a major Forest Enterprise scheme similar to the venue at Coed-y-Brenin. The Gwydyr Wales Bike Project is constructing a purpose built, cross-country route of an all-weather single track, designed and constructed by a local team of trained track builders. This development in the Gwydyr Forest will also be joined by a separate scheme run by the Eryri (Snowdonia) Bike Club and is developing down hill and dual slalom courses with a trials area.
