Walking routes in mid-Wales
The Llwybrau Cerdded (Mawddwy) Walking Paths are in Dinas Mawddwy, an unspoilt area between Machynlleth and Dolgellau.
They comprise eight, waymarked, circular walking routes, ranging from one-and-a-half to 12 miles, covering a total distance of 46 miles.
The paths have been developed by Cwmni Nod Glas Cyf, a social enterprise of volunteers.
The area has the second highest road in Wales, which takes travellers over the famous Bwlch y Groes pass between Dinas Mawddwy and Llanuwchllyn.
It's also where the Red Bandits - y Gwylliaid Cochion, roamed in the 16th century.
The routes take in mountains, deep valleys, waterfalls, footbridges, moor and grazing land where farmers have carved a living for generations.
Five of the routes start and finish in Dinas Mawddwy, while the others finish in Llanymawddwy,
Mallwyd and Aberangell.
All the walks follow public rights of way and are suitable for reasonably fit people.
Cwmni Nod Glas Cyf is a member of MWT Cymru, the independent organisation representing more than 600 tourism and hospitality businesses in Powys, Ceredigion Gwynedd and Southern Eryri./ Snowdonia.
Wales is known for its rugged coastline, mountainous national parks, distinctive Welsh language and Celtic culture.
Cardiff, the capital, is a coastal city.
The Snowdonia National Park has lakes, glacial landforms, hiking trails and a railway up to the peak of Snowdon.
