The island of Anglesey is the perfect size for cycle-touring and offers the choice of both a shorter and faster route around the main roads or a longer and more scenic tour around the perimeter lanes.

The shortest main-road circuit of the island measures 102km; whereas a much longer figure-of-eight route along back roads and gravel tracks measures 310km.

All the notable hills are detailed within each stage and practical information is included such as nearby train stations, bike shops, hotels, pubs and cafés.

Detailed route maps are included and all the routes are available for free-download for navigation purposes.

This book divides the island into five perimeter stages and four island-crossing stages, enabling you to pick and mix a route accordingly from the options of main roads, back roads and gravel tracks.

All the stages start from towns and villages around the island offering a good choice of accommodation and food/drink stops
