Nineteen circular walks in the undiscovered moors and valleys of Mynydd Hiraethog and the Vale of Clwyd.

Synopsis

The Vale of Clwyd and adjoining moorland of Hiraethog have much to offer the walker--varied scenery and wildlife, historic towns, picturesque villages and a rich history. They are often overlooked in favour of the more rugged mountains of Snowdonia to the west or the long Clwydian ridge to the east, but they are well worth further exploration. If you want to escape the crowds who climb Moel Famau or flood into Snowdonia each weekend, it's well worth discovering the unspoiled and relatively uncharted countryside that lies between them.

This collection of walks will help you to explore these less well known areas. There are walks to suit all tastes and abilities, from short easy rambles in the flat lower Vale to longer and more testing routes on the hills and higher moors.
