Customer Reviews

50 walks in Snowdonia and north Wales.
This is an excellent little book.

Each walk has an introductory panel giving distance, ascent/difficulty, start point, parking etc.

Most have a very useful little map and in addition are well described.There are also useful little panels giving information on what to look for, where to eat/drink and what where else to visit in the locality.

There are walks for for everyone, beginners to seasoned hikers; and walks in woodland valleys up to Snowdon itself. Most walks are circular.

The book is a handy size and slips easily into a backpack.
