Does anyone have a good route from the top of the fire road that can extend the normal red route around Llandegla please, a few of use are going Sunday and looking for something more than just the norm ..
cheers
Any good to you? http://my.viewranger.com/route/details/MjU0MjA=
Lots of hits on google (inc. Youtube video) for "Llandegla Off Piste" too.
The usual extension people do is over the fence from the top of the climb and up to the mast. Then down the singletrack to the road, and back up the Offas Dyke path to Llandegla. About a 4 mile extension - it will be boggy at the moment though!!
Ive just watched a vid of Degla to worlds end that looks ok for an add on 🙂
In the ‘90s we used to go along up to the masts and then head straight on. Down the access road for a bit then where the Armco starts on the left nip behind it & single track descent down to the Ponderosa for tea & cake. Winch back up the access road then to the masts and head down to Worlds End on rocky gully ridden single track. To get back to ‘degla turn left on road and then head left on the railway sleeper bridge things.
Llandegla wasn’t a trail centre in those days so there were only a couple of trails we used to ride, mainly over towards Ruabon and Llangollen; there is/was some cracking single track taking you towards Trevor Rocks. Remember a run of actual bomb holes too, legacy of the Luftwaffe mistaking lights laid out on Ruabon Mountain for Liverpool docks.
Had some good laughs on that descent, particularly the last bit!

Now way ? that's crazy. It sure is a weird place up there near Worlds End.
