THIS WALK COMMENCES FROM THE WOOLEN MILL IN TREFRIW AND THE FIRST HOUR IS A VERY PLEASANT STROLL ALONG A QUIET TARMAC LANE HEADING FOR LLYN [LAKE] CRAFNANT [GREAT VIEWS HERE] WE PASS LEFT OF THE LLANRWST MONUMENT, WE THEN PASS A CAFE ON THE RIGHT,[ JUST PAST HERE WALK ON THE LEFT OF THE ROAD AS THERE IS A STEEP HIDDEN DROP TO THE RIGHT].

AT A POST BOX WE IMMEDIATELY TURN LEFT INTO THE FOREST .THIS IS PROBABLY THE STEEPEST PART OF THE WALK AND IF TAKEN SLOWLY IS STILL VERY PLEASANT. HERE WE FOLLOW THE BLUE TOP POSTS. WHEN WE EXIT THE WOODS WE HEAD FOR THE 2ND LAKE LLYN GEIRIONYDD WHERE WE WILL STOP FOR OUR LUNCH, WE CONTINUE ALONG THE RIGHTHAND SIDE OF THE LAKE, ONCE OUT OF THE LAKE AREA WE WALK ALONGSIDE A FENCE AND HEAD OVER A COUPLE OF LADDER STILES AND THEN A VERY PLEASANT WALK ALONG A PRE-DETERMINED PATH FOR ABOUT AN HOUR REACHING OUR FINAL DESTINATION BACK IN TREFRIW, WHERE, IF THERE IS ENOUGH WATER WE CAN VIEW THE FAIRY FALLS PRIOR TO REACHING THE COACH
ESTIMATED TIME = START APPROX 11.00HRS BACK BY 15.30HRS APPROX
