About this walk
A low-level circuit on the historic Nannau estate, following a permissive path open to the public since 1890 above the Mawddach valley, with wide views to the Rhinogydd and Cadair Idris. Despite the name, there is very little climbing overall and the route passes Llyn Cynwch reservoir, making it a good easier option for dog walkers wanting mountain views without a strenuous ascent.
