    Tips

    Fantastic high dirt road leading out of Cwmcarn heading north, offering spectacular views over the coast and even over to North Devon on a clear day. Brilliant trail but be aware in winter, you'll get wet feet!

      make sure to stop and take in the views

        This section is absolutely brutal on the gravel bike in winter!
