Lanes and Trails to Caerphilly

We start car park at the end of Radyr Road, Llandaff North, no toilets, close to Llandaff station. We will cross to East of Cardiff through Whitchurch, Heath and Cyncoed to Pontprennau and the new estate up to Old St Mellons. On quiet country lanes we will drop down to Michaelston y Fedw. Then continue on cycle route 4 to Draethen and Machen and then onto Bedws. Where we will stop for refreshments. Then we get to Caerphilly. Pass around the castle and then join the Taff Trail towards Tongwynlais and back to Llandaff North in Cardiff.

A lovely loop through the lanes and trails around Cardiff and Caerphilly, with a Cafe stop in the middle.  This is a steady 25 mile ride, with approx. 1,500ft climbing including a couple of steeper (but very short) climbs. 

We will be on the Taff Trail, suburban roads, busier roads through Caerphilly and quiet narrow country lanes.    This ride would be suitable for all types of bikes. 

We will stop in a cafe in Betwas for lunch

Please wear a helmet and bring some money for a drink at the café.

We never leave anyone behind
