The spectacular landscape of Dyfi Forest is well worth exploring.

Rugged peaks loom above the forested hillsides that are dotted with atmospheric ruins and slate spoil heaps.

Fast flowing mountain streams cascade down rocky valleys, edged by old moss-covered oaks.

Steam trains chug along the hillsides, now carrying holidaymakers, but originally carrying slates from the quarries to the coast.

Within the forest, we have developed a series of easy to follow trails so you can explore this peaceful and undiscovered area.

Be prepared for an interesting mixture of forest road Croeso i Lwybrau Coedwig Dyfi and rough unmade rights of way, with occasional mud, roots and rocks. There are steep ascents and Mae’n werth archwilio tirwedd drawiadol descents due to the nature of the terrain. The trails Coedwig Dyfi. are not suitable for pushchairs.

Mae copaon ysgythrog yn codi uwchben y llethrau The forest is a mixed-use site, please be aware that coediog sy’n frith o adfeilion llawn atgofion a you may come across walkers, dogs, mountain bikes, thomenni llechi. horses or vehicles at any time.

Mae ffrydiau mynyddig byrlymus yn rhaeadru i lawr dyffrynnoedd creigiog, lle ceir hen goed derw wedi eu gorchuddio â mwsogl.

Mae trenau stêm yn pwffian ar hyd y llethrau, a bellach yn cludo twristiaid - yn wreiddiol y rhain oedd yn cludo llechi o’r chwareli i’r arfordir.

Yn y goedwig, rydym wedi datblygu cyfres o lwybrau hawdd-i’w dilyn fel y gallwch archwilio’r ardal dawel hon sydd heb gael ei darganfod.

Byddwch yn barod am gymysgedd diddorol o ffyrdd goedwig a llwybrau tramwy garw, gyda mwd, gwreiddiau a chreigiau fan hyn a fan draw. Mae yna esgyniadau a disgynfeydd serth oherwydd natur y tir. Nid yw’r llwybrau yn addas ar gyfer cadeiriau gwthio.

Mae’r goedwig yn safle amlddefnydd. Cofiwch y gallech ddod ar draws cerddwyr, cŵn, beiciau mynydd, ceffylau neu gerbydau ar unrhyw adeg.
