Tried the Llyn Brenig loop last month, what a hidden gem! Breathtaking views and quiet roads. Looking forward to exploring more of these lesser-known routes.

Top tip for tackling these hidden gems? Check your gear ratios before setting off; some of these routes have climbs that'll make your granny gears whimper!

I must admit, I'm surprised to see the Coed y Brenin route missing from this list. It's certainly popular, but offers some truly hidden gems once you know where to look. Might it have been overlooked?

Having cycled all seven of these routes, I'd recommend taking the Llyn Brianne descent in reverse for an even more exhilarating ride.

I've ridden Lon Las and Traws Eryri, but I must admit I hadn't heard of these 'hidden gems'. Are they well-signposted? I'd hate to miss them!

Just discovered the Mawddach Trail on your list. What a hidden gem! Perfect for a weekend ride from Dolgellau.

Loved your hidden gems round-up! Always thought the Lon Las was enough till I tried the Cwmorthin Trail. What a revelation!

Just returned from cycling in Wales & loved it! Hadn't heard of the Lon Las before, was it as good as they say?

Top tip for route 4: consider using 28mm tyres to navigate the gravel sections around Llyn Brenig. Enjoy your hidden gems!

I've done the Traws Eryri, but I must admit I've never ventured off the beaten track. Any tips for the lesser-known routes mentioned here?

Absolutely love that you've featured the Coed y Brenin trails. It's a cyclist's paradise – can't believe more people don't know about it!

Absolutely loved this round-up of hidden gems in Wales. The Coed y Brenin loop was my favourite – I'd never have found it without your guide!

I'm curious about these hidden gems you mention, but isn't the Traws Eryri quite popular? I've seen it on several cycling holiday brochures.

Loved your hidden gems roundup, but how could you miss out on the rolling hills of the Wye Valley? It's a cyclist's dream!

I've done the Traws Eryri, loved it! Any chance you could share your favourite route from this list? I'm keen to try something new on my next Welsh cycling adventure!

Top tip for route 3: watch out for the tricky descent at Bwlch y Groes. It's steeper than it looks – I've seen some experienced cyclists come a cropper there!

Excellent picks for those seeking lesser-known routes! Just remember to pack your puncture repair kit - those hidden gems often mean less maintained roads.

I've ridden many routes in Wales, but I must admit, these seven are new to me. However, you've missed out one of my favourites - the lanes around the Brecon Beacons. Would love to hear why this wasn't included.

That Lon Eifion route sounds gorgeous! Any tips on where to stop for a cuppa along the way? Cheers!

Just returned from cycling along the Lon Las. Gorgeous but busy! Can't wait to explore one of these hidden gems next time round — any favourites among them?

As a local to Ceredigion, I was chuffed to see my beloved Ystwyth Trail mentioned. It's a gem indeed, well done for including it!
