Flat Scenic Ride
Mawddach Trial
As seen on Julia Bradbury’s Railway Walks, the Mawddach Trail is a stunning 15 km (9.5mile) multi-use path following the old disused railway line along the edge of the beautiful Mawddach estuary in Southern Snowdonia.
The almost exclusively traffic–free route, which is owned by the Snowdonia National Park, is clearly marked, and can be easily followed.
It is essentially flat, has a fairly even surface and for most of its length is at least 3 metres wide, and as such it is suitable for walkers, cyclists and wheelchair users. The North Wales Society for the Blind has produced an audio guide to the Mawddach Trail which is available to download as a zip file
Where to Park
Many parking points including at Penmaenpool where you can enjoy a meal at George III and walk over the toll bridge.
Difficulty
Mostly flat & suitable for all the family.
