Cycling


Summary (optional)
 
start content

Cycling is one of the best ways of getting to see Conwy's superb coastline and wonderful attractions, whilst also staying healthy and helping the environment.

Getting around on your bike

The majority of routes in Conwy are traffic-free paths, providing ideal opportunities for new and novice cyclists as well as committed enthusiasts. Most of the routes also provide excellent facilities for walkers, wheelchair or mobility buggy users.

Sustrans, a UK charity who work with families, communities, policy-makers, and a number of partner organisations have introduced The National Cycle Network. This includes a route along the North Wales Coast (National Route 5) which links Rhyl, Kinmel Bay, Abergele, Colwyn Bay, Rhos on Sea, Llandudno and Conwy.
