Ceredigion: The Teifi and its tributaries

The Teifi defines the southern border of Ceredigion. Rising at the remote Teifi Pools in the Cambrian Mountains, it progresses through wildlife rich wetlands and farmland, and speeds through narrow gorges before reaching the sea at Aberteifi - the historic port town of Cardigan. Bronze and Iron Age hillforts and burial cairns litter the hills along its banks, whilst the river itself, is one of the most renowned fishing rivers in the country.

    Cycling the Teifi Valley

    Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire are best known for their glorious coastlines – but the cliffs and bays do tend to exercise the weary cyclist’s legs. What if there were a way to explore this rural idyll without all the climbing?

    That’s the idea behind Lon Teifi, which follows country lanes down the Teifi Valley to the sea. The river, once known for its salmon fishermen in their tiny coracles, flows through countryside rarely visited by tourists.

    Information about Lamprey on the Teife

    The Joint Nature Conservation Committee information on the river lamprey Lampetra fluviatilisis found in coastal waters, estuaries and accessible rivers. The species is normally anadromous (i.e. spawning in freshwater but completing part of its life cycle in the sea), and pollution or artificial obstacles such as weirs or dams impede migration.
