Guided Riding

North Wales boasts over 2000km of natural trails, bridleways, and exciting challenging
singletrack. With so many trails to choose from it can be difficult to get the most from your ride. We offer guiding, tailored to suit your requirements, so that you can save time and effort and be sure to get a ride you’ll remember.

You can find a calendar of upcoming guided rides at the bottom of this page, or get in touch if you have something specific in mind.

Summer at Coed y Brenin - like South Africa with foxgloves.

We’re based on the southern edge of Snowdonia in the heartland of Wales best trail centres,
with Coed y Brenin, Machynlleth, and ClimachX trails all within half an hour’s drive.
But there’s so much more to explore than just trail centres……

We sit at the foot of Cadair Idris – a (mostly) rideable pony path leads up the mountain, where the views are spectacular – to the North the shadowy mountains of Snowdon and the Glyders, South over the Dyfi towards Plynlymon and the coast.

The Dyfi Forest is right outside the back door, with miles and miles of quiet forest tracks and awesome technical singletrack. Then there are the Rhinogs – Wales last wilderness (rides always involve pushing), and the Mawddach and Dysynni estuaries, all traced with superb trails.

There are trails suitable for all kinds of bikes – from mountain MTB, cross-country tourers, to cyclocross and even road bikes! (Actually, the road riding here is superb, and we’ll guarantee more height gain than you’ll thank us for!)

So, whatever type of riding you’re into there’s something in Wales to suit, and we’d love to share it with you!

Steve Beech Keith Morey

Steve Beech is the owner of Wheelism and has been riding MTB for the last 30+ years, coaching for the last 15 years, and managed a local bike shop (Beics Brenin at Coed y Brenin) for 8 years before devoting all his attention to Wheelism.

A SMBLA and British Cycling certified MTB leader and MTB Night Leader, with Cytech and DT Swiss Mechanics certificates to boot, he’s got all the skills and experience to ensure you get the most out of your journey, whether that be a first jaunt off-road, full day’s tour of the area, weekend over-nighter, or a week-long expedition across the entire country.

Steve shares his thoughts on the area in this MTBBeds article.

Keith Morey lives in the middle of the woods at Coed y Brenin, is a British Cycling Level 2 coach and leader, and also holds an ML qualification so he’s just as happy up the hills as he is in the forest.

Keith (and his wife Glenda) runs Mostyn Cottage providing bed and breakfast or self catering accommodation in the heart of Coed y Brenin so if you’re looking for somewhere to stay whilst you’re riding with Wheelism then Keith is the man to speak to.

All our guides have the necessary mechanical skills to keep you riding, first aid qualifications in case of accident, and a lifelong passion for the sport of mountain biking.
