NEW Old & New Between The High & Low

Huge variety is offered by this new walk on the slopes of the lonely Arenig mountains, taking in hills, forest and lakes as well as a disused railway and remains of the quarrying once carried out in this isolated area dominated by imposing Arenig Fach and Arenig Fawr peaks. The circular route promises outstanding views including nearby Llyn Celyn reservoir which marks a dark chapter in Welsh history when its creation in 1965 forced the drowning of Capel Celyn village. The walk start is the small car park at the junction of the A4212 and B4391 at Fridd Bwlch Llestri.
