Yeh its not the fastest of DH tracks but your relieved when you get to the bottom to realise your arms havent fallen off :) hard on the hand and arms if your riding a hardtail. great fun :!

I want to pay..........

Good fun,I like the XC track and the 4x especially, lots of roots in the ground they chuck you, agree with above - horrible to ride in the wet.
There is a day charge of £7 but on the 3x I have been there, I have never been asked for the fee although I am willing to pay.
Easy to get to, I go on the train then 20 minutes to the track on the bike, less back home as it's all downhill.

Very Good But.............................
Review:
Good fun in the dry , quite a quick course , BUT , if its wet it can be very slippy as the ground is compact clay , and I can speak from personal experience that if you take a tumble on that terrain then it'll hurt.....................................

If you here for XC run, save you fiver and go somewhere esle!!!
Review:
Aston hill is only good for it's DH corse. If you novice XC and have less than 150mm fork then you wont enjoy this at all. XC run starts as DH course, fast, few jumps and big berms within second you end up at the bottom by the golf course and after short cycle on a wide path you start a very long and windy climb which on a wet day will take every bit of energy you might have. For a £5 to enter Aston Hill course you might as well spend it on fuel to go some place free and a LOT better. £5 quid for a short DH and then a long "spinning class", NO THANKS.

Short but sweet
Review:
Very short but what it lacks in length it makes up for in challenges. Fantastic fast flowing single track littered with roots especially when you hit the red run DH section but what goes down must go up so be prepared to get in your granny gears and work your legs!!
A great little track but dont let the length fool you into thinking its a walk in the park because its not!!
