Trail Reviews

Mark ten Napel 🚲
August 14, 2024, Gower National landscape gravel loop

The first 20km you think 'is this going to be an asphalt lap?' Then you think 'it will never end!' Special lap can't say otherwise. The views, the fierce hard climbs, the kilos of strong cattle, the flooded roads. It can't stop! Note: just over halfway you drive onto a farmer's yard. He doesn't want that anymore. Just take a detour. 🙂
