ISBN: 9781852848569This guidebook describes the Snowdonia Way in Wales, a long-distance route through Snowdonia National Park from Machynlleth to Conwy.

Background notes on Snowdonias geology, wildlife and history and extra information about features encountered along the way will help you discover more about this ancient and beautiful land.
