Description
Through Wales from south to north.
Lôn Las Cymru showcases rural and mountainous areas of Wales as a continuous cycling route. You will follow quiet roads, traffic-free connections, and former railway lines through varied landscapes. The endpoint of Holyhead on Anglesey provides a clear northern conclusion to the journey, while the starting options in the south allow for different travel arrangements.
Choose to start in Cardiff or Chepstow.
The route is described with both starting alternatives and a stage division that can be adapted to various timeframes. From Cardiff, the total distance is approximately 410 kilometers. The book assists you in assessing how stages can be combined or divided, depending on the number of days available and your desired daily cycling distance.
Practical planning for a continuous cycling holiday.
Route descriptions and maps facilitate following the path through minor roads and villages. Planning information regarding execution and facilities provides support when choosing breaks and accommodation. The guide is also useful if you only wish to cycle a portion of the route and require an overview of how it integrates into the whole.
A long-distance tour with both gentle sections and climbs.
Traffic-free sections do not imply that the entire tour is flat or devoid of car traffic. Wales features significant elevation changes, and daily distances should be selected based on both terrain and experience. The guide is suitable for cyclists seeking a varied multi-day tour and who are prepared to adapt their plans to the weather and their own fitness level en route.
A long tradition of hiking guides.
Cicerone has published guidebooks since 1969. The publisher emerged among climbers and mountaineers who wanted to share thorough knowledge of their routes – a tradition that still characterizes these compact books for walking, trekking, and other outdoor experiences.
