RideHigh MTB Coaching – Core Skills

Mountain Bike coaching for complete beginners to intermediate level riders – whatever your skill & confidence level we have a group session or a bespoke 1:1 session for you. We are experienced British Cycling qualified Coaches and can safely introduce you to the techniques needed to develop as a confident mountain biker. We use the quiet forest roads and trails in the heart of the Gwydir Forest to hone your skills and build your confidence. The aim is to enable you to take your newly acquired skills out on to the trails of your local trail centre and natural bridleways as a pilot rather than a passenger!

NEW for 2026! RideHigh MTB Coaching – Riding Holiday Preparation Day

Whether you are an experienced rider looking to build confidence or a more advanced rider looking to develop specific skills, these courses or 1:1 private, bespoke sessions are for you. We are experienced British Cycling qualified Coaches with many years experience of racing both DH and Enduro. You will progress your skills safely and build confidence in steep, technical terrain and develop your line choice, cornering, braking and pumping. We begin these sessions ensuring the foundations of correct body when descending and cornering and safe braking are in place and then we move onto more technical trails to put it all into practice. You will end the session feeling more in control and more comfortable in challenging terrain.

RideHigh MTB Coaching – Airtime

Are you an intermediate level rider keen to learn how to tackle jumps and drops for the first time? Are you a more experienced rider looking to consolidate and develop your airtime technique? If the answer is yes, then get in touch to book your place on one of our jumps and drops group sessions. We can also offer bespoke 1:1 or small group coaching whether you want to get your wheels off the ground for the first time or perfect your whips and scrubs! Our experienced and qualified coaches will ensure you safely transition from passenger to pilot.
We use our base of the Gwydir forest near Llanrwst and Betws y Coed for these sessions but can arrange for other North Wales venues to be used for bespoke, private bookings.
