Afan Forest Trail ‘The Wall’ – Final Descent

January 15 2009 one Commented

The Wall Trail is a swooping 24km (14.9 miles) mainly singletrack loop with epic views of the valley and coastline opening out at different points, and in places the steep-sided slopes can feel very exposed.
The breathtaking descents keep your heart pumping all the way round. Watch out for The Graveyard section and hang on for the searingly fast final descent!
