The village lies on the crossroad between Penysarn and Porth Eilian and Point Lynas Lighthouse, with turnings down towards Amlwch Port and Amlwch town, and the ascent for Llaneilian Mountain and heading towards Dulas Bay. This road forms part of the National Cycle Network Route 566, known as the Copper Trail, taking in the north coast of Anglesey that is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the nearby remains of the historical copper mines at Parys Mountain.
Stunning views definitely worth the hard work.

One of the best climbs on the island, gaining 94m over 1.7km with an average gradient of 5.5% but short ramps into double figures up to 15%. You’re rewarded as you go by panoramic views to your left, with the coast spread out before you between Porth Amlwch and the lighthouse on Point Lynas.
