A long and winding doubletrack gravel road that flanks the eastern shore of Llyn Brenig.

It's a little rough in places so best on a gravel bike, sturdy hybrid or mountain bike rather than a pure road bike.

Enjoy the views as you meander around the little inlets and see what wildlife you can see across the water.

Llyn Brenig is a reservoir located on Denbigh Moors in North Wales. The artificial lake, which was constructed between 1973 and 1976, was created by building an embankment dam across the Afon Brenig valley. It lies at 1,200 ft (370 m) above sea level on the border between the counties of Conwy and Denbighshire. It is used to manage the flow in the River Dee as part of the River Dee regulation system.
