24) Mawdach Trail, Wales.
Distance:
19 miles return trip.
The Mawddach Trail footpath walk and cycle route winds for 9.5 miles (15km) along the disused railway track on the southern edge of the spectacular Mawddach estuary. Whilst the trail can be joined at several points it starts at the picturesque market town of Dolgellau and finishes by crossing the iconic railway bridge over the mouth of the estuary into Barmouth.
Terrain:
Mostly on wide tarmac cycleway. Gentle slopes.
Facilities on site:
I park at the Dogellau car park, it was free for Blue Badge users but do check this is still the case.
There are lots of nice cafe's and disabled toilets in Dogellau. A nice restaurant with outdoor searing in Barmouth.
Dogs are permitted on the route.

A very scenic route that sets of in lovely Dogellau and takes you to Barmouth then back - all along the disused railway. Much to see and experience. During the week often low flying fast jets can be seen flying low.
