Walking: Llangollen

A few days walking in Llangollen - I didn't know the Eisteddfod was on! Camped at Wern Isaf farm, stunning views, well-managed, a short stumble from town.

Strapped on the boots to walk for a long circular walk on the limestone uplands of Eglwyseg & Trevor.

From the campsite, we skirted Dinas Bran on the Offa's Dyke path, & continued north along a very narrow, rising foothill path to World's End.

The final climb to the top of Eglwyseg scarp, offered great views, significant breathlessness, & a limestone pavement - I'm a big fan of'em!

Continuing south, we walked the scarp edge, above Llangollen, circling back down Trevor Rocks, to the foot of Dinas Bran once more.

All in all, a fantastic, taxing walk I would encourage folk to experience. The following day, we didn't leave the site - I have elderly knees you know!

A lovely 6 miler from Froncysllte: bus out, back along the canal, over Telford's flying aqueduct... I had knees again.

Llangollen, the surround countryside & hills are lovely. Too many of us simply drive through, maybe stopping for a pie or a pee, but missing an awful lot... Stop, sit, look.
