Back

Builth Wells to Glasbury via Erwood Station

image

Running down the Wye valley, the route follows back roads, with short traffic free sections in Builth Wells. The old Erwood rail station, now a café and museum is roughly half way along the section, and makes an ideal resting spot for refreshments, and a great alternative turning point for those wanting a shorter ride.

This is a very pleasant ride along the valley floor, with only short hills (albeit some are quite steep). There are many tree lined sections, which regularly open out to give views over the river and across the valley.

For more information take a look at the Lon Las Cymru South cycling map.
