Bwlch Drws Ardudwy Moderate Leisure Walk Bwlch Drws Ardudwy Moderate Leisure Walk Distance: 4 miles - 7km (circular walk) Time: Around 2 hours Grade: Moderate Leisure Walk Terrain: Mountain heathland & some rough, wet terrain. Start/Finish: Coed Graigddu car park Parking: Free designated parking area Post Code: LL45 2PL Relevant Map: OS Explorer O18 (Harlech, Porthmadog and Bala) The longer of two walks in the area, this circular route (a moderate graded walk) will lead you towards Bwlch Drws Ardudwy, which is the gap between Rhinog Fawr and Rhinog Fach. This walk gives you the opportunity to experience the rugged Rhinogydd National Nature Reserve, before leading you back to the Graigddu woodland. Many say that the Rhinogydd is one of the last true wilderness in Wales, and once you’re there it’s easy to see why. A word of warning Since this is a National Nature Reserve which is famous for its wildlife and wilderness, there are no markers on the path, and the path can get very wet. You will need to carry a map and wear strong, waterproof shoes if you’re going to follow Bwlch Drws Ardudwy this route. How to get there Traveling south down the A470 turn right, 1/2 mile (1 km) after the Bronaber turning. Traveling north up the A470 turn left, 2 mile (3 km) after the sign post on the right to the Coed y Brenin center. Follow the narrow road for just over 2 miles (3.5km) through two gates and park your vehicle in the designated parking area. Remember to keep the gates shut at all times. © Crown copyright 2017 OS 100022403 Bwlch Drws Ardudwy - page 1 of 4 www.snowdonia.gov.wales Snowdonia National Park Authority, National Park Office, Penrhyndeudraeth, Gwynedd LL48 6LF Telephone: 01766 770274 © Crown copyright 2016 OS 100022403 Note: This map is intended as a rough guide only.

Ei nodwedd bennaf yw ei mynyddoedd, o ba rai yr Wyddfa yw mynydd uchaf Cymru a Lloegr, yn 3560’ (1085m) o uchder. Mae’r mynyddoedd eraill yn cynnwys y Carneddau a’r Glyderau yn y gogledd, a’r Rhinogydd a Chadair Idris yn y de. Yma ceir llawer o fryndir mwyaf trawiadol y wlad, gan gynnwys pob un o gopaon Cymru sy’n uwch na 3,000 o droedfeddi. Mae llawer o nodweddion rhewlifol, gan gynnwys cribau llymion, cymoedd, clogwyni, llynnoedd (gan gynnwys Llyn Tegid, llyn mwyaf Cymru), corsydd, afonydd a rhaeadrau. Mae natur serth y tir yn gwneud teithio’n anodd, a chyfyngir mwyafrif y prif ffyrdd i waelodion dyffrynnoedd a thros fylchau uchel. Yn ddaearegol, mae’n ardal amrywiol, a fu â rhan bwysig yn natblygiad cynnar gwyddor daeareg. Denodd sylw rhai o sylfaenwyr yr wyddor, gan gynnwys Charles Darwin, a archwiliodd yr ardal ym 1831. Y mae ymhell, fodd bynnag, o fod yn ddim ond anialdir uchel. Am ganrifoedd, bu’r ardal yn arwydd ysbryd a rhyddid y wlad a’i phobl. Sefydlwyd bwrdeistrefi Dolgellau a’r Bala yng nghyfnod annibyniaeth Cymru cyn y goresgyniad Eingl-normanaidd. Felly, hefyd, llawer o aneddiadau llai ond hynafol fel Dinas Mawddwy.

The copyright owners’ exclusive rights extend to the making of electronic as well as physical 1 copies. No copying permitted in any form. Page Crags of the Southern Rhinogydd Copyright © 2019 Steep Stone™ - All Rights Reserved The Rhinogydd The Rhinogydd are a range of mountains located in Central Snowdonia, south of the Afon Dwyryd, east of Harlech, west of the A470 and north of the Afon Mawddach. Rhinogydd is the Welsh plural form of Rhinog, which means ‘threshold’. It is thought that the use of Rhinogydd derives from the names of two of the higher peaks in the range, namely Rhinog Fawr and Rhinog Fach. The Rhinogydd are notably rocky towards the central and northern end of the range, especially around Rhinog Fawr, Rhinog Fach and Moel Ysgyfarnogod. This area is littered with boulders, outcrops and large cliffs, all composed of perfect gritstone. The southern end of the range around Y Llethr and Diffwys has a softer, more rounded character, but this does not mean that there is an absence of climbable rock.

  • DWYRYD ESTUARY and MORFA HARLECH Component Lcas (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component Lcas (Gwynedd): Porthmadog
    SEASCAPE CHARACTER AREA 21: DWYRYD ESTUARY AND MORFA HARLECH Component LCAs (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component LCAs (Gwynedd): Porthmadog Location and Context This SCA is located in the northern part of the west Snowdonia coast. It includes the Dwyryd estuary from its mouth near Porthmadog to its inland tidal limit at Tan-y-bwlch. It also includes Morfa Harlech on the southern shore of the estuary, and the towns of Harlech and Penrhyndeudraeth. To the north is SCA 20: Porthmadog and Glaslyn Estuary, to the west is SCA 19: Criccieth to Mochras, and to the south is SCA 22: Mochras to Fairbourne and Sarn Badrig. View across the Dwyryd Estuary from Ynys, showing intertidal habitats, the village of Portmeirion and the mountains of Snowdonia forming the backdrop. Image © Fiona Fyfe Summary Description Views of this SCA are dominated by the broad landform of the Dwyryd estuary, with its extensive salt marshes, sand, mud and dune system (Morfa Harlech). The estuary also contains distinctive ‘islands’ and ridges of higher ground on either side. Overlooking the estuary are the contrasting villages of Harlech (with its Medieval castle on the valley side), Portmeirion with its Italianate architecture, and the industrial village of Penrhyndeudraeth. Surrounding the estuary are the wooded hills of Snowdonia, which form a majestic backdrop to picturesque views from lower land. In the eastern part of SCA, the valley narrows as the river flows inland. Here, the Afon Dwyryd has been heavily modified flows between areas of improved grazing, with main roads on both sides of the valley floor.

  • Hill Walking & Mountaineering
    Hill Walking & Mountaineering in Snowdonia Introduction The craggy heights of Snowdonia are justly regarded as the finest mountain range south of the Scottish Highlands. There is a different appeal to Snowdonia than, within the picturesque hills of, say, Cumbria, where cosy woodland seems to nestle in every valley and each hillside seems neatly manicured. Snowdonia’s hillsides are often rock strewn with deep rugged cwms biting into the flank of virtually every mountainside, sometimes converging from two directions to form soaring ridges which lead to lofty peaks. The proximity of the sea ensures that a fine day affords wonderful views, equally divided between the ever- changing seas and the serried ranks of mountains fading away into the distance. Eryri is the correct Welsh version of the area the English call Snowdonia; Yr Wyddfa is similarly the correct name for the summit of Snowdon, although Snowdon is often used to demarcate the whole massif around the summit. The mountains of Snowdonia stretch nearly fifty miles from the northern heights of the Carneddau, looming darkly over Conwy Bay, to the southern fringes of the Cadair Idris massif, overlooking the tranquil estuary of the Afon Dyfi and Cardigan Bay. From the western end of the Nantlle Ridge to the eastern borders of the Aran range is around twenty- five miles. Within this area lie nine distinct mountain groups containing a wealth of mountain walking possibilities, while just outside the National Park, the Rivals sit astride the Lleyn Peninsula and the Berwyns roll upwards to the east of Bala. The traditional bases of Llanberis, Bethesda, Capel Curig, Betws y Coed and Beddgelert serve the northern hills and in the south Barmouth, Dinas Mawddwy, Dolgellau, Tywyn, Machynlleth and Bala provide good locations for accessing the mountains.

Dyma’r tir rhwng y môr a’r mynydd. I’r dwyrain o Borthmadog mae sawl aber tywodlyd gyda halwyndiroedd, ac i’r de mae milltiroedd o draethau agos-barhaus, ac weithiau anghysbell, â thwyni tywod y tu cefn iddynt. Mae’r tiroedd eang tua’r gorllewin o gymeriad mwy amaethyddol. Mae’r fro’n gwrthgyferbynnu’n drawiadol â’i chefndir mynyddig, Ll ŷn ac Eryri. Mae'r ddau Moelwyn, Y Cnicht, Y Rhinogydd, Yr Eifl a hyd yn oed yr Wyddfa oll yn amlwg iawn i’w gweld. Yn ymyl Porthmadog, mae mynydd ynysig llai, ond garw, Moel-y-gest yn codi’n ddisymwth o dir yr ardal hon. I’r de o Borthmadog mae'r môr a’r mynyddoedd yn cyfyngu ar led llawr gwlad, a dau’r ddau at ei gilydd ychydig i’r de o Friog. Mae llawer o bentrefi yma, ac yn gyffredinol, cymeriad gwledig, amaethyddol sydd i’r fro, ac eithrio yn nhrefi Abermo, Porthmadog a Phwllheli a’u cyffiniau. Ceir eglwysi glan môr hynafol a chestyll mawrion ar hyd y glannau, i’n hatgoffa o ba mor bwysig oedd y môr ar gyfer teithio, a phwysigrwydd strategol yr ardal hon. Awgrymir hyn yn y cysylltiad a geir, yn y Mabinogi, rhwng Harlech ac Iwerddon: ac yn ddiweddarach, adfywiwyd trefi canoloesol Pwllheli, Cricieth, Harlech ac Abermo gan dwf twristiaeth yn y 19eg ganrif.
