    I would say Nevis Range (Fort Bill) is definitely a bike park with the Gondola and other facilities like cafe at the top and bottom. If it was easier for more people to get too it would be by far the biggest in the UK as the potential is huge.

    You two need to go to Hamsterley, there's also some good sections on the Red for Enduro bikes. Two bitches of climbs (Take an E Bike) but some great downhill sections on that as well.

      Another vote for Stiniog from me. As said above one of the fastest uplifts. Tracks hold up well when the weather is wet. Only downside is the exposure, no trees or anything like that so when it's windy you get blown away! 🤣

    So a bike park has uplift, while a Trail centre doesnt??
    If So..
    BPW, DYFI, Fort Bill, Revs, DannyHart Descent Park... but what about Antur Stiniog. Forest Of Dean (prob a bit small but great fun) Honorable mention to Cwmcarn (Cwmdown thats closing this month!! 😭)
    but if a bike park only requirement is that it has to offer many trail choices??
    Glentress + many of the other 7 Stanes, Coed Y Brenin, etc

    Skillz bike park Corton the smallest park in the UK but full of funky features ! Think backyard trail build on steroids . In terms of leagues , Dyfi is my personal fav in the premier division. Truly inspirational.

      @@ArronCrofts_89 for uplift you're looking at the obvious ones. Dyfi, Revolution is just starting back up, Bike Park Wales, and Descend. Nothing particularly close though. Get an ebike would be my advice if you're not interested in the climbs.

      Last time I went there met a father and daughter from Holland who had their first time riding downhill (xc is pretty much all they have there) and there is definitely a way down for beginners but they are kind of confined to one track at the top section and one at the bottom, middle has a few lines though
