The Mawddach Trail

Reviewed By 533carmelr - Bolton, United Kingdom

Started at Barmouth Beach and walked over the bridge (a train came across at the same time!) It was sunny and such a nice stroll. Bikes overtook us, as did joggers but it didn't matter! We walked from Barmouth to the George 111 pub, and then onto dolleglau. It was about 9 miles so we got the bus back (free on weekends) It's a flat walk and can be done at any pace. I might even try to do a bike next time!!

Nercwys Forest

Reviewed By Dataflow - Chester, United Kingdom

If you venture off the beaten paths here - starting at the corner through the style you are treated to some lovely hidden paths. Nothing wrong with the bigger paths but I prefer wandering through the older parts of the woods where the trees are closer together and the path less obvious.

Lon Las Ogwen

Reviewed By jammyjames60 - Cardiff, United Kingdom

Lon Las Ogwen offers wonderful views of the north Wales landscape as it climbs south from the coast at Porth Penrhyn in Bangor. Following the valley of Afon Cegin, the trail climbs on old railway cuttings through lovely woodland to Tregarth and into the mountains of Eryri.
