Fortnight of freezing weather and fairly hefty snowfalls will almost inevitably turn to ice. Like the conditions site says – couldn’t really be much clearer to my eyes. What more of a “warning” do you want them to “put out?”???
Coming soon to STW – “no-one told me Pope has Balcony and pointy hat”, “someones should have warned me that bears defacate in dense forest before I stood in it”. Do you want the Forestry to come round and wipe your hole for you as well?
Glentress – updated 9th February
Please note: the wallride on the Essentials Free Ride trail is closed until further notice. Sorry for inconvenience.
Hub café and bike shop: Hub café and bikeshop are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays until Easter (open rest of week).
Parking restrictions: Buzzards Nest Car Park, The Red Squirrel car park and the access road to these are closed to vehicles due to snow.
Trails: all open except for Wallrides section in Freeride Park (closed until further notice for review of timber features) and Super G on Red Route – closed until 20th February for maintenance work with digger. See diversion info.
Conditions: Snow on all trails – slippy and icy. From Buzzards Nest height and upwards the depth of snow makes riding v.difficult.
Diversions: Diversion at start of Super G on Red Route, via Betty Blue (Blue Route), rejoining Red Route at post 44 (start of Hit Squad Hill). Minor diversions on the final third of Electric Blue on the Blue Route until mid February due to timber flyover bridge construction and trail maintenance works.
