Taff Valley ride to Pontypridd and Barry Sidings

We start at Llandaff North Railway Station car park and cycle up the Taff Trail to Tongwynlais. We join the road and head towards Gwaelod-y-Garth. Then on quiet country lanes continue to the Treforest Industrial Estate. After a short section on roads, we then join another cycle trail in to University of South Wales Treforest Campus. We head along residential roads in Treforest and Pontypridd, and then join the cycle paths towards Barry Sidings Countryside Park.
The return route is through Pontypridd and Ynysangharad Park, joining the Taff Trail. We will head South on the traffic free Taff Trail to Llandaff.

This is an undulating ride heading north of Cardiff up the Taff Valley towards Barry Sidings Countryside Park. A lot of this ride is on traffic free cycle paths and only has a few short steep hills.....but it's a lot less hilly than my usual rides......!

We will be cycling on cycle tracks, suburban roads, quiet country lanes and only a very few busy roads.

We'll stop halfway round at Barry Sidings Countryside Park, Trehafod, CF37 2PE. There is a nice cafe where we can have lunch.

Please wear your helmet and bring lights, in case any mechanicals delay us.

We never leave anyone behind
