Walking in the rugged UK hills
There's no better way of blowing away the cobwebs than by heading out for a brisk, bracing walk. Do you prefer a dawdle along the Thames or a stride across the Pennines? Send us your suggestions for scenic strolls, more challenging hikes and great walking holidays - and, if you know a good pub for warming up or cooling down in afterwards, tell us about that as well.

    An Autumn Walk

    Posted by eyeshy 29 October 2012

    North Wales is simply stunning in autumn. Nestled in the hills and forest above Llanrwst and Betws-Coed are the beautiful lakes of Llyn Geirionydd and Llyn Crafnant.This walk covers varied terrain, forest, rocks, rolling hills and lakes, perfect for adults and children (age six plus). A disused slate mine, wonderful views, tranquil lakes edge, made up our walk. Refreshments were at hand at a delightful little cafe on Llyn Craftnant that sells scrumptious cakes, hot chocolates and local real ale and the owner told us tales of local folk!

    Take the B5106 from Conwy or Betws y Coed to Trefriw, then follow signs for Llyn Crafnant.

    Fantastic website with all different kinds of walks in this wonderful part of Wales. We recently did the eight-mile walk around the lakes in Trefriw - the Conwy Lake District.

    Great little cafe on one side of Llyn Crafnant where they make delicious home-made cakes and serve a well deserved cuppa.
