If you're driving out to start your ride from Ysbyty Ifan there is a small car park just across the river bridge in the village. The climb is long but never hard and undulates as it gradually gains height. Once out onto the mountainside the road crosses a wild and remote stretch of upland. The road is single track but wide enough for vehicles to pass relatively easily - the road surface is perfect - awesome in descent with no sharp bends to check your speed. Check the weather forecast before you ride as the upland is open and exposed to the wind and the elements.
