Overview

The first walk of 3.5 miles known as The Precipice Walk is a reasonably flat one with some great views of the surrounding mountains & the Mawddach valley but is uneven underfoot in places. Upon returning to the start lunch can be taken before the second walk of a similar distance around the base of Foel Offrwm is undertaken again with very scenic views of Cadair Idris, the Arans & the Mawddach estuary. This walk has only slight gradients but again is uneven underfoot in a few places. There is the option of ascending to the summit which has some sharp gradients but is reasonably short in length & where you are rewarded with the finest of views.
