Download or read book 15 Great Walks in North Wales written by Andrew White and published by . This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walking is one of Britain's favorite pastimes, and the new 15 Great Walks series offers something different - with a view to helping more and more people to get walking. Instead of all short walks or all long walks, these guides are designed with a range of lengths - starting with walk one at 2 miles and finishing at walk fifteen at 15 miles. In addition, the reader is encouraged to do the walks in the order in the book, not just because the walks get longer, but also because the walks have common threads running between routes telling different stories of that particular area. The 15 Great Walks series feature all the information needed to help new walkers get out into the countryside; detailed yet easy-to-read hand-drawn maps showing the routes, clear information with all the important facts, photographs showing key points and route directions which tell the story of the walk - and all written in plain language by walking expert Andrew White, the presenter and producer of the TV series Walks Around Britain. This guidebook takes in fifteen great walks not just in the Snowdonia National Park, but also in North Wales as a whole - including the island of Anglesey, and takes in walks through the countryside, along old railway lines, beside water, up hills and down valleys - but always with stunning views and interesting stories. Welcome to 15 Great Walks in North Wales.

Download or read book Mountain Walking in Snowdonia written by Terry Fletcher and published by Cicerone Press Limited. This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook describes 40 day walks exploring Snowdonia. It showcases some of the best mountain walks in the area, with routes up Snowdon and Tryfan alongside other classic peaks like Y Garn, Cadair Idris and the Glyders. Routes are graded easy to strenuous and include airy and pulse-quickening scrambles such as Crib Goch and Bristly Ridge as well as the Snowdon Horseshoe, the Nantlle Ridge and a 2-day traverse of all 15 of Snowdon's peaks over 3000ft. Walks range in distance from 4 miles (6km) to 16 miles (26km). Clear route descriptions are accompanied by OS mapping, and for each walk there is key information about distance, grade, ascent, terrain, access and parking. With useful advice on where to stay and when to go, and an English-Welsh glossary, this book is an invaluable guide to discovering both the popular and less well-trodden corners of Snowdonia. Snowdonia can justifiably lay claim to some of the finest mountain walking in Britain, from the bristling, jagged ridges of Snowdon to the huge grassy mounds of the Carneddau and the stone-girt fortresses of the Glyderau. These are big mountains with big personalities, with glowering crags and deep rocky cwms. Whether you are based in Bala, Beddgelert, Llanberis, Betws-y-Coed, Dolgellau or Capel Curig, you'll find walks in this guidebook to suit you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook describes 30 low level and easy walks that are suitable for all abilities. The hikes covered are in the northern part of Snowdonia National Park, close to Conwy, Betws-y-Coed, Llanberis and Porthmadog. Most of the walks take around 2hr, with others ranging from 2 to 6hr. Each walk has an accompanying Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 or 1:50,000 map showing the route, easy-to-follow route descriptions and information on distance, time, ascent, refreshments and where to park. The guide also includes more general advice on walking in the area, historical information, and facts about the points of interest seen on each walk. In this part of Wales, neolithic settlements and Roman ruins stand beside the medieval castles of Welsh Princesses and the modern remnants of the mining industry. Myths and legends abound, and many walks relate to the stories of King Arthur and Merlin, Anfanc and Welsh fairies.

Download or read book The Snowdonia Way written by Alex Kendall and published by Cicerone Press Limited. This book was released on 2024-01-11 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook describes the Snowdonia Way in Wales, a long-distance route through Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park from Machynlleth to Conwy. A low-level route of 97 miles (in 6 stages of between 13 and 21 miles) passes through the heart of Eryri's stunning mountain scenery and includes Pass of Aberglaslyn, Ogwen Valley and Aber Falls. It is suitable for walkers of average fitness and stamina, though the day stages are long. An alternative mountain route covers 122 miles in 9 stages of 12-18 miles, giving a spectacular journey over the most famous peaks such as Cadair Idris, Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and the Glyders. The high-level route is more physically challenging and requires good navigation skills. Full route descriptions for each stage are accompanied by OS maps and profiles. The guide also includes lists of accommodation and transport providers and a table of facilities to help with itinerary planning. Background notes on Eryri's geology, wildlife and history and extra information about features encountered along the way will help you discover more about this ancient and beautiful land.

Book excerpt: Even while rambling in the most rugged and remote parts of Wales, one is liable to stumble upon some mysterious link with the past — a ruined building, a track that leads nowhere, an obviously man-made hole in the ground. All these pose questions that insist on answers. Mountain expert Kevin Walker has spent hundreds of days tramping the Welsh mountains and moorlands and has uncovered the stories behind some of these special places, which are rich not only in landscape and scenery, but also in heritage and people, myth and legend, past lives and long-forgotten tales. In Undiscovered Wales he presents 15 one-day circular walks, of varying degrees of difficulty, that pass through locations rich in history. In addition to background information, each of the walks is described in full with photographs, details of the terrain and sketch maps.
