The Rhinog Traverse
3 day traverse of the rough bounds of the Rhinogs with Peter in May 2010.
The traverse started at Llandecwyn station at 1440 on 15 May and finished at Barmouth at 1400 on 17 May. Total walking time (incl stops) was 20 hours, to cover 24 miles and a suprising 2500m of ascent.
This is wonderful mountain walking country, intricate and challenging route finding, varied terrain, lots of high lakes and continous seaward views to the west.
Don't tell too many people though as its quietness is part of the charm
