The 14 locks car park will be shut but you can park considerately on local roads. Please don't park near the junction on Brunel Ave, there is plenty of room further in and on Taliesin Drive.
We will follow the canal up to Cwmcarn forest drive, then follow the drive around up to the top!
This is a beautiful if challenging, hilly route but the views are worth it!
*Please note this is to the top of the scenic drive itself, not the visitor centre. NP10 9GN

Our first evening ride around Cwmcarn Scenic Drive this year.
The route is on the canal path and on the closed roads of the forest drive. There is a short on road section open to cars as we ride up to the visitor centre from the entrance.
We will stop briefly at the top for photos and a quick snack.
We will head straight back to the start, those that want to can join us at Tiny Rebel which is just down the road from where we started.
Please wear a helmet, bring lights, water and a snack, a spare inner tube for your bike and the means to change it in case of a puncture.
