10.4 miles (16.7 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This cycle route runs from the coast at Llanelli through the Swiss Valley to the village of Tumble in Carmarthenshire.
It runs for just over 10 miles with much of the surfaced route a disused railway line.
You can start off at the small lake in the Millennium Coastal Park on Llanelli sea front. From here the trail heads north east passing the Swiss Valley Reservoirs, Five Roads, Horeb and Cynheidre before arriving before coming into Tumble.

Cycle path near Cynheidre.  Altogether a very strange place...Some railway locomotives and wagons on short bits of track that go nowhere, at least the National Cycle Network goes somewhere!
