Summary

The Llwybr Ceiriog Trail, which was originally developed for horse riders, is a challenging long-distance walk. The circular route offers a mixed bag of farmland lanes, wild hills, woodland, and sparse countryside. From Pandy, the route heads for the hills south of the Vale of Llangollen before turning south and winding through lovely stretches of woodland to Bronygarth. The meandering return to Pandy is achieved by rounding Pen y Gwely.
