About

A short but strenuous ride of 13 miles (21 km) with magnificent views starting from Betws-y-Coed and leading through the villages of Llanrhychwyn and Trefriw and on to Llanrwst and returning to Betws-y-Coed, with an optional detour to Lake Crafnant. The toughest part of the route is in the first 3 miles where most of the climb is done, but the views are worth it. Start from the pay and display car park at Betws-y-Coed railway station.
