Glyn Ceiriog - Across the Slate Caverns. - A short walk which winds around and above the slate quarries which were once the life-blood (and the death knell) of many local families.
2 km (1½ miles); height gain 120m (400ft); - about 45 mins.
Roads, lanes and a footpath.

From The Cross walk up Stryt Uchaf (High St.) for 4 or 5 minutes. At the far end of the Vicarage wall go L at a PO letterbox. Uphill quite steeply for 6 or 7 mins, then take path 9 on L opposite farm buildings. Keep along this for about 15 mins, passing above the three-level caverns and quarry of Chwarel Wynne. Emerging onto a lane, there are many more slate workings in the Cambrian quarry above, but our short walk goes L downhill for 9 mins, back to 'The Cross'.
