Hilly, scenic eighty mile Welsh road cycling route through the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley ANOB taking in the famous Horseshoe Pass.

Leaving from Pontcysyllte Aqueduct & Canal World Heritage Site we pass through the riverside town of Llangollen up the hilly pass towards Ruthin and onto the seaside town of Prestatyn.

Once refuelled we then head back south-east towards the Welsh town of Mold, again with majestic views and undulating climbs before a long descent back to the popular aquaduct.
