The signed public footpath starts from the entrance gates to Hafodunos Hall. Please do not park in the gateway.
The path is often muddy so can be slippy. Appropriate footwear and supervision of children is recommended.
The walk will take you up through part of the grounds of Hafodunos Hall. The Hall was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and completed in 1866 although the Estate has a long history. The current owner is restoring the Hall and grounds so you will be able to see some of the work-in-progress.
The footpath winds through the valley with a wide variety of plants and wildlife. Allow plenty of time to sit and enjoy.
From the gates, the footpath soon leaves the main driveway and continues up the valley next to the water. Keep going and you will eventually cross a wooden bridge before zigzagging upwards. Pass a very unusual feature (with another cache nearby) and continue on to a ladder stile. There is no need to climb over the stile but the GPS signal is better on the field side. The cache can be reached from the footpath.
Have you been inspired by the sounds, the colours or the views?
Could you write a log in verse or add a photo?
Please feel free to collect any litter.
There is a new trackable and a Welsh slate keyring for the First to Find. There are some fun items too.
