LL57 4HN

Starting from Port Penrhyn we'll cycle up Lon Las Ogwen cycle path towards Tregarth. It’s cycle path all the way for this ride, we will stop at the lovely Café Blas Lôn Las just off the cycle path. There is a small footbridge which you will need to lift your bike up and down a step to cross over.

This ride is geared towards all ages and abilities, making it the perfect choice if you haven’t cycled for a while or are looking to increase confidence, all while having fun with other local women. Whether this is your first Breeze ride or you are a regular rider you can still come along and join in. If you want to bring any children who are confident to ride the distance and happy to ride under your supervision on the ride please book them a place - if you aren't sure please get in touch to discuss.

There are limited spaces on the rides, so make sure you book early and let us know if you can’t attend so we can offer the space to someone else.

What to expect on the ride:
This ride will go at a leisurely pace and will take place in a relaxed, traffic-free environment on risk assessed routes led by a qualified Breeze champion. We want these rides to offer an opportunity to practice cycling in a safe environment, to all have fun and gain confidence riding in a small group. No-one is ever left behind!
