Description of Walk

Starting from Betws-y-Coed, we follow a mix of roads and forest track rising gradually to Ty  Mawr, the birthplace of William Morgan, who first translated the bible into Welsh. After taking this in we ascend to a plateau overlooking the machno valley before descending back to Betws-y-coed, but not before taking in an old arched Roman bridge near Pandy falls.
