Set deep in the Cambrian Mountains, Llanwrtyd Wells is one of the most rewarding cycling bases in Mid Wales. Quiet roads, relentless climbs and wide-open scenery attract riders who value space, challenge and uninterrupted miles.

From the legendary Devil’s Staircase to flowing forest singletrack, this area offers something for both road cyclists and mountain bikers.

Few questions spark as much low-stakes passion as this one: tea or coffee? It’s the kind of choice we make half-asleep, yet somehow it feels deeply personal—almost philosophical.
