Designed as a super challenging XC trail for skilled singletrack lovers, White’s is all about snaking climbs, tight tree sections and the rocky drops of the final ‘Darkside’ descent. Big bike riders now get an optional black run descent as reward for slogging (or uplifting) to the top of ‘Windy Point’ too.
This is the most technical of all the trails in Afan Forest Park and is 90% purpose-built singletrack. A 6km sheep-track climb gives fantastic views of the Afan Valley, extreme exposure on tight singletrack means ultimate thrills and long, demanding descents with rocky steps to negotiate, all leading to one outrageous trail.
If you are up for it try out the optional super technical Black Run descent!
