Accessible routes
The outdoors should be for everyone. The following five walks are accessible for wheelchair users, families with pushchairs and children using push bikes or scooters.
You can reach them all by train and a number by bus. If you’re eligible, a Disabled Persons Railcard means you and an adult companion can travel for a third off. Kids travel free on our rail services.
If you encounter any issues with these walks, please feedback to ramblerscymru@ramblers.org.uk.
