Arthog and Llynnau Cregennen Walk

This mid level walk to Llynnau Cregennen in South Snowdonia has a bit of everything. From ancient woodlands, picturesque lakes to the massif of Cader Idris and the Mawddach Estuary. It’s well worth your while extending the route slightly at the Mawddach Trail and walking to Penmaenpool to the George for half time oranges.
