Coed y Brenin opens six gravel-specific cycle routes
The routes vary in length and challenge from the shortest Coblynnau (Goblin) at just over 9km to the 36km Y Wrach Wen (The White Witch). Trail surfaces will vary but will include forest road, hard packed track and some narrower trail sections. Most trails can be tackled on a gravel bike or even a hybrid with a reasonable tyre volume but there are some steeper sections on the longer trails that may require you to walk your bike a short distance.
These routes have been carefully compiled to offer an alternative adventure to Coed y Brenin's well known MTB trails. You could be looking to notch up some fitness miles or just to soak up some scenery with tranquil tree-lined forest road and spectacular mountain views. These new routes are for the pure pleasure of cycle enjoyment.
