The best of both worlds! This moderate walking trail combines both the Brenig Walking Trail and Alwen Walking Trails, with some spectacular views to be found. The walk will be 9.5 miles. Did you know that during the construction of the lake, a number of Bronze Age artefacts were found. The site was used as a camp by Mesolithic hunter-gatherers. This has been dated by radiocarbon analysis of the charcoal from their fires to around 5700 BC. You can follow a number of archaeological trails, the relics visible include a ring cairn (a Bronze Age burial mound), and several barrows!
