| The drier the better. The Mynydd Llangorse hillsides remain rideable even after rain, but on Allt yr Esgair it's trickier when the terrain is sticky. |

| This route is pretty hard but if you enjoy the offroad you can certainly enjoy that when you are on Mountain road, simply following the tracks off the road which can lead you up the mountain, you can even ride over to Cwmcarn off road course from there.
Enjoy |
