A historical treasure trove, ideal for the curious rambler.

Roads and track ways peter out into high pastures, moorland and craggy countryside above this idyllic, sleepy little village beside the turbulent Afon Roe. For thousands of years these windswept uplands have been settled and farmed by humans, and their monuments, buildings and rituals have left a rich resource both for the professional archaeologist and the curious rambler. This walk an ideal afternoon stroll after lunch at the village inn or tearoom or on a day trip from one of the Conwy Valley's resorts, offers a snapshot of this long history. You'll pass standing stones and old homesteads, hill fort and burial chambers, ancient field boundaries and medieval chapel amidst a landscape of strange, rounded gorse forests and sudden hilltops.
