Wye Valley Loop
From Rhayader, make your way through Cwmdauddwr and on the Elan Valley Trail for approx. 3 miles to the Elan Valley Visitor Centre. Cross the River Elan on your left and make your way through Elan Village to pick up the Llanwrthwl Road. The ride takes you high up onto the Cefn with views of the Wye Valley. Ride through woodland, over open hills and farmland before dropping down onto the Wye Valley Walk. Head for the confluence of the River Wye and Elan and cross the wibbly wobbly bridge to send you back into Rhayader.
