Pump Track Wales Guide: Rhayader

Rhayader, Powys, Mid Wales

The UK's first split sprint pump track: a mirrored circuit where two riders start together, split either way and race back to the start.[1][2]

What the track is like

Surface: Asphalt (OpenStreetMap)[3]
Best for: All ages; head-to-head racing on the split layout[2]
Cost & hours: Free, open all year round[1]
Built by: Designed by Cartwright Associates, built by Clark & Kent Contractors[1][2]

The track is on the western side of Rhayader, off the road towards the Elan Valley, near the rugby club (Y Weirglodd). When it opened it was billed as the UK's largest split BMX track, and it is part of the town's pitch to be the biking capital of Wales.[1][2]
