Easy walk to Llyn Geirionydd
A leisurely 12km walk from the camp site. We’ll start by heading up into the woods before we break out into open ground to reach our highest point of 300m. We then decent to Llyn (lake) Geirionydd and walk along its shore. We then take an easy track gently down to the village of Trefriw where we can stop for a pint. Our final leg home is along the river and back into the camp site.
