I've got 4 days off work coming up and plan to spend them doing a mini-tour of Wales.

I'll be camping, and prefer the scenic quieter routes, as opposed to hustle and bustle of cities and touristy places.

I'd really appreciate any suggestions on sights to see, places to visit or routes to ride.

Thanks in advance!

Many years ago I drove this route in a car:

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Llandudno,+Conwy,+United+Kingdom&daddr=Dolgellau&geocode=FdCyLQMdpX3F_yk3V6ev4uFkSDHgd4U2Xp6RbA%3BFQDOJAMdf7bE_yk1Nb9VfWNlSDHs-G0qV-ocpA&hl=en&mra=ls&sll=52.896477,-3.55545&sspn=0.35789,1.347198&ie=UTF8&ll=53.18711,-3.718185&spn=0.177742,0.673599&z=11

Not too long a road but the scenery is fucking amazing. Very long river runs right along the side of the road and the hills just rise right up high from the sides of the road, you are down right at the bottom of the valley.

The road to Aberystwyth near Devil's Bridge is pretty good. Lots of sweeping bends!
