Pistyll Gwyn Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

In my opinion, a body of water enriches every tour. If it presents itself as spectacularly as it sounds, all the better!

Rhinog Fawr Summit Cairn

Highlight • Natural Monument

This is the rough part of Snowdonia. Not ‘trolleys in the canal’ rough, but a craggy, vegetated, wild kind of rugged. Stick to the paths, such as the Roman Steps …

October 31, 2023, Rhinog Fawr and Bwlch Drws Ardudwy loop — Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri / Snowdonia National Park

Not the easiest route to follow once close to the top and very hard going around the tarn with large rocks to negotiate. Not really suitable at the top for older people or dogs. We turned around and headed back rather than completing the route we had planned.
