Overview

A tough circular walk from a scenic lake set in the Rhinog Mountains, well known for their ruggedness. Today's walk takes us along one of the least walked sections of the Rhinogydd, following narrow paths winding though heather and bilberries, with rocky, pathless sections which make route finding a challenge. We are unlikely to meet anyone apart from near the start and end of the walk. Along the way, we will encounter lakes, fascinating Cambrian Age flat rock platforms, steepish rocky gulleys and 'The Roman Steps' . 

This is a strenuous walk with sections of uneven ground underfoot, relieved occasionally by some easier walking on the rock platforms.
