Wales Mountain Biking

Wales Mountain Biking is your go‑to guide for exploring some of the best trails in the UK. It’s the 12th book in Vertebrate Publishing’s hit MTB series, and it packs in 20 brilliant routes across South, Mid and North Wales — from chilled 12km spins to big 50km days out.

You’ll find classic loops in the Brecon Beacons, the Black Mountains, Pembrokeshire, the Gower, the Elan Valley, the Clwydian Hills and, of course, Snowdonia. There’s even guidance for tackling the legendary ascent and descent of Snowdon itself.

Written and illustrated by MTB journalist and Wales expert Tom Hutton, every route comes with clear directions, easy‑to‑read OS 1:50,000 mapping, distance and timing info, difficulty grades, plus handy tips on cafés, pubs and local gems.

And because no good ride stops at the border, there’s a bonus section featuring the iconic Long Mynd circuit and the Minton Batch singletrack just over in Shropshire.

Vertebrate Publishing continues its mission to create the best outdoor guides around — from mountain biking and cycling to climbing and hillwalking — and this one is another absolute winner for anyone who loves exploring on two wheels.
