Lake Vyrnwy Dam Loop On our last day in North Wales we headed to Lake Vyrnwy. Passing Cwm Hirnant, where we’d hiked up a steep hill last time, we had a hair-raising incident on the one-track road!

The Glasdir Copper Trail, Coed-y-Brenin Forest A sign post on the Precipice Walk pointed below to the Glasdir Copper Mine. Then a couple told us to visit the waterfalls there too. We had to investigate!

A hike to Swallow Falls from Capel Curig With the weather turning overcast it was decided that we stay low and under cover. Swallow Falls was the destination – a round trip from Capel Curig.

Bala Lake Railway & a hike from Llangower Station We missed out on the Bala Lake Railway the last time we stayed here (out of season). So I plotted a walk from Llangower Station to make a day of it.

Post-Stag Walk to Castell Dinas Bran What better way to round off a Stag weekend near Oswestry than a hike up a steep hill in the blazing sun! Namely, Castell Dinas Bran in Llangollen.

Bodnant Garden We took a break from hiking and spent a day wandering around Bodnant Garden. Took the Champion Tree tour on which it rained but we had plenty of shelter 😉
