Mawddach Trail and Abergwynant Woods
Aug. 2nd, 2024 05:20 pmYesterday I drove us to the little car park at Arthog[*] but instead of walking to the coast, we walked back towards town and then reached a path up into a part of the woods I'd not visited before. I therefore had different things to photograph.
View from the old railway bridge. This is the point you join the Mawddach Trail once you've left the car park. It is a small car park with only room for about six cars, but we were only the second car there when we arrived.
One of the many small rivers that flow into the Mawddach.

Early signs of autumn to come. All the rowans we saw were thickly covered in berries which are turning red.

( More about the walk here... )
The walk back along the trail was less enjoyable than the walk out. By lunchtime it gets very busy and cyclists were riding past all the time so we had to walk in single file right at the edge of the track. But we made it back to the car and thence home in time for lunch.
[*] My husband says that he always has the urge to add a W in front of the name Arthog. :-)
