A493 — Barmouth to Dolgellau
Great Britain · measured from OpenStreetMap geometry
A493 runs 11.1 miles between Barmouth and Dolgellau. We counted 358 corners along it, which works out at 32.4 a mile — corner after corner with no let-up. It runs past the coast, mountain peaks, cliffs and woodland. That is busier than two thirds of the roads we have measured in Great Britain, where the median is 30 a mile.
Ridden together with A493 and B4401 it makes about 17 more miles of the same kind of road.

How we measured it
Corner counts come from the road's own geometry in OpenStreetMap, not from ratings or votes. Every bend above a threshold of curvature is counted once, so two roads can be compared directly. Nothing here is crowdsourced and nobody paid to appear.
