The Meirionnydd Ramblers are a friendly and welcoming group. We offer regular and varied walks in the wonderful countryside in and around southern Snowdonia.

Our walk today explores the South Meirionnydd countryside above Cardigan Bay. We start by heading for the grade 1 listed church of St Mary and St Egryn in Llanegryn. There has been a church on this site since at least early mediaeval times but the current building’s main claim to fame is its beautiful, intricately carved wooden rood screen which some suggest may have come from Cymer Abbey at the time of the dissolution. After visiting the church, our walk resumes, passing through wide, open pastures and following a stretch of the Wales Coastal Path, with stunning sea and coastal views. Swinging round, we now enjoy enticing views inland, to Bird’s Rock and the ridges of Cadair Idris, before a gentle descent back to the start. (Note that there are several stiles along our route.)
