Help connect Corwen

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 Corwen’s Slow Ways.

A bit of an obstacle blocking the right of way at Brynderw farm but just stay to the south of the farm buildings.

This is a scenic and varied route that follows the Dee valley Corwen - Carrog and the North Berwyn hills Carrog - Llangollen. I found it easy to navigate, though I don’t recommend the North Berwyn hills in poor visibility. Also, good hiking boots are essential for this section as some paths are very uneven....
