Ady & Meg.

This walk has amazing views over the reservoir.

Unfortunately the day we went was following a big storm, which had resulted in many big trees having fallen onto the path. We negotiated the first few by climbing down the bank and walking along the water's edge, but as we returned to the mainland we found it harder to maneuver and spent well over an hour completing a very short section of the walk due to having a climb under, over and through the debris.

We completed this walk clockwise, but we would recommend that you do this anticlockwise - this way, you will get the stunning views from the top and then can retrace your steps back to the start if the trees are still blocking the path.

As part of our day out we paired this with Bryntail Lead Mine and the Clywedog Reservoir Viewpoint, and would have had time to do another walk/activity if the trees hadn't taken so long to negotiate.

Flossie.

I particularly enjoyed paddling in the reservoir during this walk. I handled the fallen trees well, but can imagine that this would have been a lot harder for a bigger dog (or a smaller dog, unless they can be carried).
