Produced in association with the Ramblers, this walking guide covers North Wales and combines detailed route descriptions with information on the local history and wildlife.
The second largest National Park in the British Isles, Snowdonia offers a variety of challenging walks, from the high peaks to lowland valleys and gorges. The guide also includes some walks outside the Park.
·The introduction gives information about the topography, geology and history of the area, and describes the flora and fauna inhabiting it.
