Itinerary description

Beddgelert circular route that is easy to follow. Scenic views of the hills around Beddgelert and diverse geology and flora. Several good spots for resting and a toilet at the parking lot at 7 km.

Note: The forest ascent starting after approx 7.5 km would be tricky in wet conditions going in the opposite direction (hence being a descent).
