The
walk starts at Llanrwst (Pronounced as clan roost) and takes in part of the
historic village crossing the river by historic bridge. The walk is largely
along good pathways most of which have a variety of exceptional scenery.
Although four an A walking no particular great heights are ascended, the walk
is challenging and very enjoyable. A particularly nice thing about this walk is
that there are very many changes in scenery which ranges from, historic
churches, historic monument to the fantastic treeline surrounding a most
beautiful area which supplies a reservoir. There is a considerable area of
paths which are not well used and therefore there is a considerable amount of
beautiful flowers to be seen. Towards the end of the walk, there is a glimpse
of Swallow Falls and various other small waterfalls along the river leading
into Betws-y-Coed the last 2 miles of the walk offer some beautiful tourist
style walks along the river. The overall distance covered is 11.1 miles, and on
the day we did the reconnoitre some of the path were slippy and therefore it is
recommended that walking poles are used.
