Church Village Community Route Llantrisant to Tongeg
The recently opened Church Village Community Route is one of the first traffic-free trails to be completed as part of the ‘Valleys Cycle Network’, an extension of 100 miles of new National Cycle Network across the old south Wales coalfield.
From The Cross Inn in Llantrisant, this scenic trail runs north of the Church Village Bypass, to the edge of Tonteg, providing a great opportunity for both visitors and commuters to enjoy the rich Valleys landscape and the rural environment.
Learn about the abundance of wildlife, including a rare species of butterfly that can be found along the trail and have a picnic on an eco bench on the way. Don’t forget to keep an eye out for the lovely artwork - a 6foot Victorian vent displaying images of future modes of transport designed by children from a local primary school.
