A walk starting in Betws y Coed, leaving the town climbing steeply up into varied landscapes with great views of Snowdonia, eventually arriving at Capel Garmon Burial Chamber (a Neolithic chambered tomb). Then onto the village of Capel Garmon before looping back to Betws Y Coed. Varied terrain and paths, some quite boggy areas at this time of year, but a very worthwhile walk!
