Help connect Abercynafon
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Abercynafon’s Slow Ways.

The route passes some very nice pub gardens when you arrive in Talybont so if you didn't want to venture on this could make a nice end point. The route then starts to climb up and passes alongside Talybont reservoir with some great views but slightly more challenging underfoot....
