Beaumaris – Anglesey Coastal Cycling Base
Beaumaris – Isle of Anglesey Cycling Break
Set on the edge of the Menai Strait, Beaumaris combines beautiful coastal cycling with timeless Welsh history and seaside charm. Discover island loops, coastal paths and cultural highlights.
Beaumaris sits on the Menai Strait with views across to Snowdonia. It’s a completely different riding experience to inland Wales.Here, the roads are more forgiving, the air smells of the sea, and the terrain rolls rather than climbs sharply.

Why Base Yourself Here?
Anglesey has a unique feel — slightly calmer, more open, and often sunnier than the mainland.
- Coastal loops around the island
- Wide country lanes
- Gentle undulating terrain
- Long sea-view stretches
It’s a brilliant base for a more relaxed hub & spoke break.

Day 1 Llandudno to Beaumaris
A scenic ride through forests, moorland and mountain landscapes.
Ride Overview
Getting to Betws-y-Coed
The outward journey begins with a short train ride from Llandudno to Betws-y-Coed.
- Departure: 10:10am (approx. 43 minutes, direct)
- Alternative: 13:10 departure
- No changes required
Alternatively, you can ride directly from Llandudno, adding approximately 32 km (20 miles) to the day.
Route Navigation
From Betws-y-Coed, follow the route using your preferred navigation method. We recommend:
- using a smartphone with a GPX navigation app
- or hiring one of our Garmin GPS bike computers with routes pre-loaded
If using your phone, it’s important to bring a backup power bank, as navigation apps can use significant battery over a full day’s ride.
The Ride
The route begins with a steady climb out of Betws-y-Coed, following quiet wooded lanes as you gradually gain height.
The early section includes a number of climbs, some of which are steeper, but most are manageable when ridden at a steady pace.
A good approach is to keep a consistent, gentle rhythm — avoiding pushing too hard on the climbs will make the ride much more enjoyable.
As you continue, the landscape opens out into high moorland, with wide views, big skies and very little traffic. Much of this section follows narrow, smooth tarmac roads with passing places.
Route Highlights

Descent into the Vale of Ffestiniog
Approaching Porthmadog
After the high moorland section, the route descends into the Vale of Ffestiniog, followed by a series of shorter climbs and descents.
You’ll reach Penrhyndeudraeth, which is the first opportunity to stop for food and drink since leaving Betws-y-Coed.
From here, the final section continues on to Porthmadog, where the day’s ride finishes.
