Description
This third option for this way avoids the long A road sections of Macmal1, as well as the river crossing and the amount of climbing involved in Macmal2. It does however come with its own issue and that is the footpath between SH 799 027 and SH 804 036, which although signed at both ends from roads and is walkable. Some sections are severely overgrown and it is not obvious on the ground how you get around Cwmllwuy Uchaf without fighting brambles and climbing a gate. The east side of the farm looks more favourable, but the map and hence the route indicates the right of way being on the east side. The rest of the route is fine

Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
