A tough high level coast to coast walk traversing through the highest and wildest parts of Wales from Cardiff to Conwy. A distance of 275 miles (440km), with an ascent of 61540 feet (18742 metres) (double Pennine way).
Future designation as a national trail is still in limbo, although the Ramblers' Association strongly advocates recognition of the Cambrian Way
The route is generally un-waymarked and navigation skills are essential.
More information on Tony Drake's Cambrian Way, Wales’s most scenically beautiful and challenging long distance trail, can be found on his website - here. A map of my route is shown below, zoom in for more detail.
I have included below GPS data of the route for reference purposes only and it's use is entirely at your own risk.
