Rhyd Ddu MTB Trail

  • The route starts in Llanberis, the climb is steep (involves very likely some pushing) and the descent is very technical. Initially, it is steep and exposed along a very narrow rocky ridge edge. Expect boulders, rocks, and drops.
  • The route has a voluntary bike ban. This means from 10 am to 5 pm from the beginning of May until the end of September there is no riding. The paths are shared by walkers so for the best ride and to avoid conflict please respect the ban. Full details of the voluntary restrictions can be found here.
