Apart from Walking up Snowdon there are
good paths on all the main hills in the area for example - the Glyders,
Carneddau, Moel Siabod, Mynedd Mawr, Moel Elio and so many more.
For visitors to the area the 1 - 25,000
O.S. map for Snowdonia is an ideal source of information and ideas.
There are also a number of hill walking
guidebooks to the area and a large number of independent mountain
guides.
|
As well as the peaks there are many beautiful
lower level walks to be enjoyed. Studying the O.S. map and talking
to other people can be the best stimulus for new ideas.
Some of the industrial heritage of the area has a stark beauty of
its own, but take care in these places as they are full of potential
dangers.
Throughout the area there are many places
to enjoy - often by yourself- beautiful tumbling streams, small
high lakes and old forests, a wealth of beauty and tranquillity.
Please respect the Country Code wherever you go.
