The Cambrian Way

The Cambrian Way is a tough high level coast to coast walk through wildest Wales. Tony Drake, pioneer of the Cambrian Way, brought many years of experience as a footpath conservationist to the planning of this superb route for the discerning mountain walker. The route has been well researched to follow public rights of way or access land over mountain and moorland. It provides a fine three weeks walk through scenically superb and largely unfrequented country. The route in this book requires map reading skills and much stamina to achieve its 288 miles and about 67,000 feet of ascent. There is however no need to worry about peat bogs, interminable stiles, firing ranges, deer stalking and grouse shooting that beset some other trails. This is a practical guide and handbook with 106 maps and information on a total of 131 youth hostels, bunk houses, camp sites and b&b addresses.
