Starting from the lake it takes 1 mile on country road to get to the start of the Treservean mineral trail. Once on this trail the track is flat for several miles. This trail joins up to the bottom of Carn Marth. There is a steady climb to reach the top of Carn Marth and the track is rocky but well worth it as the views from the top are stunning. Panoramic views of Cornwall including both Costs! At the top there is a lovely long downhill section which eventually branches off onto a single track. Slightly muddy and technical/rocky downhill and uphill climbs. The track loops around the bottom of Carn Marth and brings you back to the Treservean Trail, then back on the country roads for the last few miles back to the lake base. Please bring your own refreshments we will stop to refuel along the way. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. Look forward to seeing you there.
