    Cilcain Loop

    Did the Cilcain Loop today. Approx 22 miles.



    Parked Moel Fammau car park (£1.00).



    1. Start at the large rock firectly opposite the gate

    2. Follow the ride the clwyds (red markers). This climbs quite a bit and does 3 large u shaped bends.

    3. Once the track narrows down to singletrack take the first left up towards a gate.

    4. At the gate turn left, this is a steep climb to another gate.

    5. Continue forward and then turn right at the top.

    6. Continue forward passing turning for Moel Fammau

    7. Carry this forest road forward for approx 1.5 miles until you hit a gate.


    8. At gate continue forward and veer right on to road.

    9. At cross roads turn right

    10. Carry this road for approx 1.5 miles (passing car parks for clwyd view)

    11. In Cilcain turn right before church

    12. Carry on this road for approx 2 miles

    13. Take 2nd turning right up steep incline

    14. Follow the red ride the clwyd signs to bring you over 2 rivers

    15. Then up steep climb then quick decent down to car park



    1.5 hours if your going at pace. The snow probably slowed me down :)

    Here is some more information about the route:
