Middletown Hill

Highlight • Climb

It’s a bit of a climb to get to the top, but it’s worth it.

Tip by

8.67 km

Covering around 23 acres on the lower flanks of Moel y Golfa, this is a small, mature woodland and an enjoyable wander en route to the summit at 403m. One path runs along the bottom of the hill, while another goes straight up to the summit. The views from the top reach to the other Breidden Hills, the Severn Valley and farther still to Cadair Idris, some 60km away.
