Builth Wells

Highlight • Settlement

The small town in Wales is situated near the river Wye and invites you for a short break. There are some restaurants and if you don’t want to spend too much time, I recommend a stop at the Coop (the supermarket is integrated into a gas station, but has everything you need) followed by a break in the beautiful park, which you can hardly miss, because the cycle path leads right through it.

Builth Bull Statue

Highlight • Structure

This life-size statue of a Welsh Black bull stands near the town's Wye Bridge. Made from bronze, the Builth Bull weighs 1.5 tons and was created by Gavin Fifield, a local sculptor. It was unveiled on 28 November 2005 to coincide with the first day of that year's Royal Welsh Winter Fair.

Bridleway Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Decent alternative to the road, but if you’re in a hurry stick to the road. There’s too numerous gates and dog walkers.

Impassable Hairpin Turn

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

A highlight for all the wrong reasons. as you head around the hairpin turn you will soon notice the ferns plus the terrain are not ridable. Get bars caught and down you will fall. Plus half of what you are stood on is just flattened ferns rather than soil which fell away underfoot. Managed to walk it while dragging my bike alongside me dangling down the hill.

Please check your routes with a map as this is the 2nd komoot route that has directed me through areas that you currently just cant ride
