NEW Aberdyfi to Machynlleth Coastal Path (SR)

Ascent (Feet): 2375

We start by taking the 10:55 train from Barmouth to Aberdyfi.

From there, the coastal path heads for the hills. We follow the Panorama Walk along a high ridge, which provides wide views across the Dyfi Estuary and the hills of Eryri National Park. On the way, we will spot Carn March Arthur, a deep mark in the rock, said to have been made by King Arthur’s horse Llamrai.

From Pennal, the path again strays into the hills, this time along forestry tracks.On our descent into Machynlleth, you’ll pass close to Bron-yr-aur where Led Zeppelin spent time in 1970 to write some of their best known tracks, including Immigrant Song and Stairway to Heaven to name a few.
