ROUTE CHANGE Due to strong winds.

DATE CHANGE - 4th October

this Snowdonia walk is through sparsely planted old forests and includes the pass from Capel Curig to Crafnant. This is a quieter area of North Wales within the Snowdonia National Park and away from the tourists and popular paths. It is magnificent country. Paths and route finding are easy and the views superb.
