Beddgelert is a lovely village below Moel Hebog, and the bridge over the river is a key feature.

If you smile sweetly you don’t have to pay. There are also public toilets just after this.

Gwydir Castle is a magnificent and atmospheric historical gem located in the Conwy Valley, North Wales, nestled in the foothills of Snowdonia, near the town of Llanrwst. It is perhaps best described as a fortified manor house or Tudor courtyard house, rather than a traditional Norman-style fortress. The Wynn Family: Gwydir was the ancestral home of the Wynn family, one of the most powerful and influential families in North Wales during the Tudor and Stuart periods. They were descended from the ancient Princes of Gwynedd. Salvaged Materials: The castle incorporates re-used medieval materials, including a spiral staircase, taken from the dissolved Maenan Abbey in the 16th century. Royal Connections: King Charles I stayed at the castle in 1645. The future King George V and Queen Mary stayed here in 1899.

St. Cybi’s Church in Holyhead, Anglesey, was founded in the 6th century by Saint Cybi. Surrounded by ancient Roman fort walls, it features architecture from the 13th to 16th centuries. Still an active parish church, it offers visitors a glimpse into Wales’ medieval history and unique religious heritage.

First, a somewhat adventurous ride on the single track to the parking lot, which costs £5. The easy loop around the lake is very beautiful and relaxing – the sheep roam freely, but they keep their distance. Dogs must be on a leash, of course, but that's not a problem. Enjoy it – and if you're up for more, go for a longer loop. There are a few tables and benches above the parking lot for your picnic. You won't find any litter baskets, so you'll have to take them with you – which is perfectly fine, as it's a nature reserve. Highly recommended.

Pen y pass looms in front of you for most of the climb, which is stunning, and the drivers are usually pretty good, although I've only done it late on in the evening. A warm up or a climb in itself.

The view from the front is also very impressive! 👍🏻

Here the water flows calmly, just before it thunders through the rocks! 😊

Great section of the Slate Trail

Must be small, I didn't notice it. 😉

Great fun for the kids. Can be cold at times but not very long so you're soon out into the sun.

A good walk or ride. Easily achievable on a cheap MTB or a gravel bike. It's mostly gravel, which makes it a good all-weather route.

Plenty of drink and eateries

Toll bridge

Really nice, relaxing ride. Perfect for after work ride.

Nothing especially tricky or difficult, as long as you have vaguely "gravel" tyres you'll be fine. Stunning views along the way, I prefer the heading west views but it is pretty both ways.

a bit chonky at times but doable up and down on 45 tyres and no suspension

A really fantastic chucks route. one for everyone's bucket list.
