Snowdonia World Heritage Trail

Stumbled across this and thought it might appeal to some(one). 85 mile circular through the slate quarrying landscape of north Wales. You can buy the gpx file for £10 ... yes, I know people will go 'ten quid for a gpx file FFS!!!' but upon completion in how ever long you like, you will also receive a nice looking A5 map. By the time that's drawn, produced and posted to you, a tenner seems quite reasonable.

Anyway, if a tenner seems fair or you just want a look: https://www.wheelgoodtimes.com/post/sno ... XHKwPZNnjM

Fair enough. Covers most points of interest, and they seem to know their stuff.

Looks a decent route tbf

Its a great route that. I've not ridden it as the loop but have rode 99% of it over the years. Definitely worth doing as the views and history of the old workings are fantastic

Does look good. The only bit I know well is around Dinorwig, proper post-industrial weirdness. I love the place! The Seamstress and Looning the tube are an essential start to any aspiring slate-heads climbing career.

If anyone needs accommodation and parking on the route, one option is the WMC (Wellingborough Mountaineering Club) cottage in Bethesda. All essential facilities for 8 people for (I think) £100 a night. Can be booked through the BMC's club huts page or do a search.
