18. Glyndwr's Way - Llwybr Glyndwr
Covering a total of 135 miles, Glyndwrs Way forms two sides of a triangle, starting from Knighton in the welsh Marches and running north-westwards to Machynlleth near Cardigan bay before turning back eastwards towards Welshpool and the border with England; the third side of the triangle is completed by another trail, Offa's Dyke Path. The acorn waymarks lead the walker through the heart of Mid-Wales which has some of the most remote and unspoilt countryside in the British isles, providing a succession of panoramic views over the river valleys, the peaks of the Cambrian mountains and two of Wales' most beautiful lakes, Llyn Clywedog and Llyn Efyrnwy. This is the official guide to the route, published in association with the Countryside Council for Wales. It can be used with confidence by both the long distance walker and the weekend stroller.
