Walking in North Wales

Gwynedd offers stunning walking country – for the well prepared and well equipped.

The rugged terrain of North Wales is a rural adventure playground for walkers, ramblers and climbers. Take a stroll around the scenic shore of Llyn Ogwen or, for the more ambitious, burn off a few calories on a nearby mountaineering route. The Llyn Trawsfynydd reservoir boasts numerous nature trails and the twin lakes of Llynnau Mymbyr reward brave walkers with stunning views of the Snowdon Horseshoe.
