Overview

This varied circular walk explores the open hills south of Bala overlooking Llyn Tegid. Our route involves a steady climb with a total ascent of 1140 feet. There are lovely views towards the Arans, Arenig Fawr and Llyn Tegid.  We will follow paths and tracks over rough moorland, though forests with some boggy sections, and with one steep descent. (There are a few stiles to be negotiated and some cattle may be encountered in one area.)
