An adventure around Hafren Forest.
It will be a mixture of forest trails, bridleways, country lanes and open hillsides.
The route takes us through Hafren forest and out to Llyn Clywedog (if we are lucky we might see one of the ospreys nesting there). We'll ride along the lake for a while before stopping at Caffi Clywedog to enjoy the stunning views over the lake with tea and cake!
The way back takes us over farmland, woodland and narrow lanes to return to the forest car park.
Weather is looking sunny, with some showers (but this could change by Monday...!)
Bring waterproofs and snacks for the ride and a spare inner tube if you need it.
