Abergwesyn Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

One of the most beautiful stretches of road in Wales or maybe the world, this valley from Abergwesyn to the well-known and much feared Devil's Staircase is an incredible place …

Devil's Staircase Gravel Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

An alternative climb up the infamous Devil's Staircase, but up the gravel fire road.

Gradients are more gentle than the road climb and the surface is good enough for slick tyres in good, dry conditions, so no gravel bike required!

Dolgoch Hostel

Highlight • Mountain Hut

An Elenydd Wilderness Hostel. A simple and friendly hostel, hidden away in it's own secluded valley. Hot showers, loads of bunk beds and self catering kitchen. A really lovely place to stay.
