New 130-mile Traws Eryri cycling route comes to north Wales

Looks fun, I’ve signed up. And even already checked the train connections each end of the route ready for a bikepacking adventure later this summer.

Will be interesting to see where the route goes as there is a distinct lack of riding of this type in Wales

Are these new BW’s or ones I’ve been missing?

I think they will have to be new ones as getting from Conwy to Match off road on current BWs is tricky.

Think it will probably head south from Conwy pass all the lakes then bash through to Dolwyddelan than on to Blaenau and Traws to pick up the Sarn Helen and keep going south.

If. It went west out of Conwy that would be ace and really open some of the Welsh hills. Although would be tricky getting over tha Carnedds.

Who knows.
