Lon Las Menai Cycle Route
This traffic free cycle path runs along a dismantled railway line from Caernarfon to Y Felinheli in Gwynedd.
The route runs for just under 4 miles along the Menai Strait with fine views across the water to the Isle of Anglesey on the other side. The path makes use of the former Caernarfon to Bangor railway trackbed.
The route links with Lon Eifion at the southern end in Caernarfon. The longer trail will take you south along the old train line to Bryncir.
You could extend the ride by continuing north along National Cycle Route 8 to the Menai Bridge where you could cross over the water to reach the Isle of Anglesey.
As a traffic free ride the route is also suitable for walkers.
