Cycling the Devil’s Staircase, Wales
The Devil's Staircase hill climb lies between the village of Abergwesyn and Tregaron in mid-Wales. Crossing the Cambrian Mountains, the Devils Staircase forms part of the much longer Abergwesyn Pass. The full pass is 14 miles long and is a spectacular mix of wilderness, mountains and steep climbs. It's not a surprise that the Devil's Staircase Wales finds itself in the 100 Greatest Cycling Climbs book along with the Tough of Bowland.
