I'm planning a trip mid week in mid Wales, one of us will be on a gravel bike so wondering if I could tap into the hive mind to review my planned route, make suggestions for alterations around boulder strewn tracks that will eat skinny tyres for breakfast, routes best avoided on a bike/diversions etc etc.
Day 1 is parking at Rhayader and a short trip to Lluest Cwm Bach bothy. I'm guessing the easiest access is still from the north end of the reservoir on the vague path visible on satellite imaging.
Day 2:

Strike up to north through Hafren forest, west on TCW and then drop back south using the Cross Duro Wales route past Nant y Moch reservoir
Day 3:

Nant Syddion to Aberystwyth and back via NCN and Claerwen reservoir track

Re: Route feedback and suggestion
You do realise that all bothies are closed and off limits?
May the bridges you burn light your way
Re: Route feedback and suggestion
I hadn’t realised that, thanks for pointing it out. Rethink required.
