Country Walking, latest issue: Your complete guide to the best walks in Eryri/Snowdonia!

The new issue of Country Walking is your ultimate guide to Wales’ biggest, oldest and best-loved national park.

Whether you know it as Eryri or Snowdonia, this is your chance to discover the greatest walks in this hallowed ground, where thrilling mountains and idyllic lakes sit side by side with myth-drenched woodland, peaceful riverside walks and gorgeous coastlines.

We’ll describe all the routes up Wales’ highest mountain Yr Wyddfa/Snowdon (and how to link them up into brilliant circuits) and show you the best ways to explore famous ranges like the Carneddau, Cadair Idris and the iconic Tryfan.

But we’ll also take you to quieter mountain ranges like the Rhinogydd, the Arrans, the Arenigs and the Moelwynion – home of the remarkable Cnicht, often hailed as the Welsh Matterhorn.

We’ll explore ancient woods and riverside strolls; grab an ice cream on the coast, and even show you a few gorgeous locations that even seasoned fans of Eryri might struggle to place on a map.

And away from Eryri, somehow there’s also room for all this:
