Track to Lluest Cwmbach bothy

[Asposium]

Looking on Bing maps and Google maps aerial photography can't see anything obvious.....

Is there a track from a road to Lluest Cwmbach bothy?

Seem to be a few tracks in the area; however, none seem to join up.

3 ways in I know of.

But this is the best and driest

Just created it as a Strava!!!! segment for you for ease

Let me know when you've got and I'll delete it again

You are only supposed to get to that particular bothy BY FOOT and not by bicycle (or quad bike/motorbike/4x4/horse/etc.). Its part of the agreement with the Elan Valley Trust (citation needed).

can't see any option to download a GPX; however, gives an idea.

You WILL GET TO THE BOTHY BY FOOT! by default. The bit after the Bridleway, which is fine to ride because well it's a bridleway, is a push anyway (or in my case heroic carry)

So ner ner na ner na!

If the water is low you can ride/walk some of the gravel beach/shore to get there from the road that's a bit closer, but the last section is a wet feet death march from hell (or maybe that's the bit the other side of the road)

Matt's way in is pretty good, still a bit sloppy at times though

Please don't delete that Strava segment.... it's my one and only KoM.

A recent chat suggested that packrafting from the road on the opposite side of the reservoir would likely be the funnest (and possibly driest) way in
