Planning a few days riding in North Wales at the start of April, we're going to do some trail centre days, but i'd be interested of anyone has any longer/get in the middle of nowhere routes? Did most of the Snowdon Route, as listed in the "routes" section here a couple of years ago, Would be very much in the mood to do something long and "back country"-ish...?

Berwyn & Wayfarer from either Llandrillo or Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog. Can be easily extended on the Glyn Ceiriog side to include either the Pheasant track over to Glyn Ceiriog or The Lawnt descent to the south of LDC.

Did a route in the Clywds last weekend & really enjoyed it.
Check out Colin Downs website

He is an all round top bloke - have done 2 of his routes now.
