Cwm Idwal Circular (3.78miles / 6.08km)

  It’s been quite a while since my last proper walk. Went back to work in September after the summer holidays and so it’s been pretty busy. On top of that, I managed to sprain my ankle. I’d like to say it was something dramatic and exciting, but no, I fell off the road whilst warming down after a run! What a plonker. I’ve been longing to get back out and about though and I genuinely couldn’t think of a better place to go than Cwm Idwal. It’s been my favourite place since I was a teenager. My school friends and I would regularly pile into a few cars and come up here for a walk- traipsing past seasoned walkers in our converse and band t shirts! I haven’t been since Megan was tiny though. I’ve wanted to, but the parking has been an absolute nightmare in the area and lockdown hasn’t helped. There is a bus service, The Snowdon Sherpa, which you can get to this location if you don’t fancy battling for spaces. It’s very reasonably priced:  https://www.gwynedd.llyw.cymru/en/Residents/...
