Cycling within the park is dominated by NCN Route 47 as it follows the former railway track. Starting from Full Moon, a round trip to the Halfway House at Gelligroes and returning by a parallel route running on the east side of the river from Pont Lawrence Rees to Nine Mile Point as an alternative will give you an 8.5m / 13.5km ride. Longer rides to the north along Route 47 take you along the Three Parks Trail carry you across Hengoed Viaduct and on towards Parc Penallta.
For the more experienced MTB'er, the parish roads and forestry tracks in the adjoining National Resources Wales woodland offersome great technical trails off the top of the valley sides.
