Overview

We walk uphill to join the Offa’s Dyke path just below Moel Y Plas, then walk up it and continue along the path with great views of the Vale of Clwyd below us. We then carry on all the way to Llandegla where we can stop at the community shop, and have lunch  in Llandegla. We will then return back towards Moel Y Plas, but then turn left before it and back down to Craigfechan a different way, and maybe have a drink at The Three Pigeons at the end. Most of the height gain is in the first part of the walk up to Moel Y Plas.
