Overview

From the village of Craig y Nos the walk takes in an array of varying landscapes from high ridges to long escarpments, meandering picturesque valleys then wild, rough open moorland with limited indistinct paths proving a challenge to all walkers. However, on a good weather day then the views alone make this a walk not easily forgotten!

Parking at Craig y Nos Country Park Outdoor Centre. All day parking fee applies.

Walkers are asked to carry In Case of Emergency information, this might be on a card, key fob or on their smartphone.
