Bike and Hike Festival

The town of Betws-y-Coed in the heart of Snowdonia National Park is hosting a festival of fun aimed at everyone who enjoys biking and hiking. It doesn't matter if you enjoy hard core mountain biking and scrambling over jagged peaks, or prefer cycle touring, or rambling through beautiful surroundings; our festival aims to provide something for everyone.

We will of course have guided rides and hikes. Betws and Llanrwst, our neighbouring village, are both near the Gwydyr Forest and the Marin Trail, a technical and long mountain bike trail raved about by all who do it. Snowdonia National park is also home to the highest mountain in England and Wales, Snowdon, or Yr Wyddfa as it known in Welsh. There are many rugged hills here and some of the most stunning forest and lake walks to be found anywhere in the UK. Our guides, all local and some Welsh speaking are qualified and are massively enthusiastic, they will be able to give you lots of advice and take you to some of the less well known spots during your tour.

There will be tours aimed at families
