LONG DISTANCE PATHS RUNNING THROUGH THE REGION ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN WHITE
|
Clwydian Way, the Long
Distance Trail Created to Celebrate the Millennium, David Hollet - In the
main the path circles round Denbighshire, but in the east it crosses over
into Flintshire, and in the west part of the alternative, Llansannan
route, passes through Conwy. The entire route, however, runs through what
can be rightly termed "The Heart of North Wales" - thus providing
long-distance ramblers with a perfect combination of scenic countryside
and medieval towns and villages to pass through and enjoy. The main, 122
mile-long route, runs from Prestatyn along the Clwydian Range, then on to
Llangollen in the south. It then runs west along the Llantysilio Range to
Corwen, north to Brenig, east through the Clocaenog Forest, and north
again, through the Vale, back to Prestatyn. By the use of an alternative
route through Llansannan, and a 'Link-Path' near Denbigh, the walk can,
however, be broken down into three shorter circular walks, the 88 mile
long 'South Clwydian Circular', the 55 mile long 'West Clwydian Circular',
and the 42 mile long 'North Clwydian Circular'. Published December 00.
