Planning a trip there tomorrow to do both loops - anyone done it recently and know whether it's all open / overgrown / wet / all OK?

Thanks.

    One of my work colleagues has given me a week at end of June in their holiday home nearby.

    Love climbing and fast descents but my bike's a HT not built for technical stuff. Love to hear how it is.

    I did it last week and found it very technical and very dangerous, basically proper mountain biking but you make a mistake and the 6 inch wide path and big drops to the side arent going to do you any favours.
    Basically if like me your used to doing llandegla black and the marin trail you may find it a bit much , i also found it mostly climbing with not many fast flowing descents just lots of of very rocky xc but then im a bit of a big girl on the scarey stuff so ignore me.........

    Just wondering whether all sections are open and how overgrown it is. Done it several times before and it is still my favourite XC trail

    OK so we did it and it is in reasonably good nic. Very wet as always though, but not overgrown. Fantastic trail with outstanding views and scenery
