How to get there:
Only an hour or so drive on good roads from either Merseyside or the West Midlands, we are in the Welsh hills just outside Oswestry.

Leave the Oswestry By-pass (A5/A438) at the Little Chef (also Travel Lodge & TIC) roundabout, onto the A483 towards Welshpool.

4 miles - turn Right at White Lion pub, Llynclys, onto A495.

3 miles - turn Right opposite a quarry entrance.

Climb hill to T Junction. Turn Left.

Half a mile - Entrance on Right.

Park and unload at top of our hill.

*** Plenty of room for parking, turning long vehicles, and camping ***

Details of courses and payment are in the car park office. Take your bike or horse through the top-right road and follow the signs to the courses. The "Engine House" bunk and club house is 100m to the right of the quarry entrance, serves food and drink.

I use to ride here a few years back (been out of the game for a while!), Loved it, a brilliant track. Anyone know if it is still closed or if there are any plans for the future, would be a shame to see it disappear. Can anyone shed some light on the current situation?
