North Wales C2C

[ootini]

Hi,

I've been tinkering with BikeHike and I've had the idea of a North Wales coast 2 coast, as in from the Northern Irish Sea coast near the Dee estuary, through the heart of North Wales, past a couple of lakes and on to the Western Irish Sea coast near Cardigan bay. I'm hoping to get to try this either before it gets too cold, or next spring.

At the minute it's surprisingly short at just shy of 90 miles, so I may have to tweak it a bit to crack the 100 mile mark. There's also a balls up near Hiraethog where there's a bit of a loop, can't quite figure out how to get rid of that at the minute.

Any thoughts, suggestions on how it could be improved?

One thing instantly springs to mind; instead of the main road along Llyn Tegid, take the south bank. There is a cycle way along a lot of the north side but the traffic noise makes for a thoroughly unpleasant ride. In contrast, the south side is a quiet lane.

Cheers. I'll take a look.

The route definitely needs work, but it's just to give a rough idea at the moment.
