Taff Trail and Cycle Hire

Wheels for hire

Pontcanna Fields
Cardiff CF11 9JY
United Kingdom
+44 29 2075 1235

The Taff Trail is a 55-mile long, mainly off-road, cycle and footpath starting in Cardiff Bay and extending north to the town of Brecon. It passes through some marvellous scenery with plenty of sites of interest and stopping points along the way. Large stretches of the trail run alongside the banks of rivers and canals, so the going is relatively easy, and you can tackle as much or as little in one go as you please. You don't even have to have your own bike, just pop along to the cycle hire shop in Pontcanna Fields and rent yourself one for as long as you like.
