Embark on the Narberth to Black Pool Mill via Llawhaden Castle loop, a moderate touring bicycle ride through the picturesque Pembrokeshire countryside. This 10.5-mile (17.0 km) route features around 959 feet (292 metres) of elevation gain and takes about 1 hour and 25 minutes to complete. You will cycle through rolling hills, mature woodlands, and serene river valleys, passing the historic Llawhaden Castle and the charming Narberth Clock Tower.
This loop is generally suitable for cyclists with good fitness levels, offering mostly paved surfaces. However, be aware that some segments may be unpaved and could present a challenge. The trail provides a peaceful journey through patchwork farmland and rural hamlets, making it a great option for a tranquil ride away from busy roads.
What makes this route special are its historical landmarks and varied rural scenery. You will get to cycle past Llawhaden Castle, described as a "little known castle-cum-mansion," and the 19th-century Blackpool Mill, which is currently undergoing renovation. The trail is a popular choice among local touring cyclists, praised for its tranquil inland routes and diverse landscape.
