Swiss Valley

The Swiss Valley Cycle Route follows a disused railway line that climbs gently from the Millennium Coastal Park into the rolling hills above Llanelli, passing Sandy Water Park, Llanelli Rugby Ground and the Felinfoel Brewery. Further on, you reach the peaceful Lleidi reservoirs where you can enjoy superb views of the Gwendraeth Valley.

From Tumble, the route continues past the Mynydd Mawr Woodland Park to Cross Hands where there is the option of a link to the National Botanic Garden of Wales at Middleton Hall.

Traffic-free and well-surfaced throughout, this route is ideal for families or inexperienced cyclists. There is a gentle climb up from Llanelli which makes for a fantastic gravity-aided return to the start.
