Builth Wells

Highlight • Settlement

The small town in Wales is situated near the river Wye and invites you for a short break. There are some restaurants and if you don’t want to spend too much time, I recommend a stop at the Coop (the supermarket is integrated into a gas station, but has everything you need) followed by a break in the beautiful park, which you can hardly miss, because the cycle path leads right through it.

Builth Wells Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Builth Wells is a pretty market town in the heart of Mid Wales. Situated at the meeting of the Rivers Irfon and Wye.

If you're staying awhile, shop's, cafe's and usual facilities are available, with the Builth Castle (earthworks only now surviving) providing good panoramic views over the town.

Builth Bull Statue

Highlight • Structure

This life-size statue of a Welsh Black bull stands near the town's Wye Bridge. Made from bronze, the Builth Bull weighs 1.5 tons and was created by Gavin Fifield, a local sculptor. It was unveiled on 28 November 2005 to coincide with the first day of that year's Royal Welsh Winter Fair.

March 3, 2023,Circle through Llandrindod Wells to and Builth Wells

Great circular ride from the Fforest Fields site towards Builth Wells along cycle route 8 and out towards Newbridge on Wye. Across country on smaller lanes to Llandrindod Wells (stopping for a coffee break) before heading back to the site over the pretty steep col at Bwlch-llwyn (356m). Great ride if a bit cold !!
