    Country Walks Around Wrexham Route 6 – RHOSLLANERCHRUGOG Mountain Reservoirs (5½ miles / 3 hours) Rhos – Ty Mawr – Esclusham Mountain – Bronwylfa – Rhos This route may be linked to CWAW 3 to create a 9 mile walk. This walk is a gentle climb up to Esclusham Mountain passing Ty-Mawr and Cae- llwyd reservoirs and includes a short section of moorland. It begins at the Sun Inn, Hall Street, Rhosllanerchrugog (grid ref. 289468). Cars: Plenty of parking space is available nearby. Buses: There are regular bus services from Wrexham, travel information: 01978 266166. Please ensure that your dog does not stray from the footpaths. Keep it on a lead in fields with sheep and on the open mountain where the grouse are easily disturbed. The route is not suitable for wheelchairs, buggies or small children. WALK DIRECTIONS ARE IN BOLD TYPE Starting from the Sun Inn, Rhos, follow Hall Lane for a short distance away from the village, to Park Lodge with its stone relief depicting the sun. The emblem is believed to be part of the Jones family crest, owners of Llanerchrugog Hall in the late 18th century. The building was originally part of the Llanerchrugog Estate and a tree-lined driveway to the Hall ran from here though the estate parkland. Retrace your steps for a few metres to take the path through a long narrow open space, this was once a Great Western Railway line linking Rhos with Wrexham. In 1893 a group of Rhos businessmen formed a consortium to run their own railway to connect the village with Wrexham.
