Mountain Biking Ballinastoe
#3 of 17 mountain bike trails in Ireland
One of the few approved trails for mountain bike use in all of Ireland. A
blend of fire road climbs, totaling 900 feet of ascent, followed by long
singletrack descents, which account for about 60% of the distance. On the
western slope of the Wicklow mountains, you will pass through thick old
growth forests and see valleys of farms. You may even pass near herds of
sheep. The singletrack and view are worth a visit. The trails wind quickly
and are speckled with smooth stones but they hardly rise above the dirt
surface. It is Ireland so bring a something waterproof. You can find a trail
