About the Berwyn Range
The Berwyn Range is a beautiful area of North Wales that is often overshadowed by its big brother the Snowdonia National Park which sits just to the west of the Berwyn Range. The Berwyn Range is relatively unknown – but this is one of its greatest assets. Unlike the Snowdonia National Park which sometimes feels a little crowded, you can often walk for miles in the Berwyn Range without seeing another person.
Exploring the Berwyn Range, you will find spectacular waterfalls, dramatic rivers, wonderful views, wildlife and small friendly villages. There are also fantastic mountain biking and on road cycling routes to explore.
Where IS the Berwyn Range
The Berwyn Range stretches roughly from Llangollen in the east, along the Dee Valley to Bala in the west. The highest peak is Cadair Berwyn, at 830 metres, but there are 24 peaks above 600 metres that are waiting to be explored.
The area is scarcely populated. The main villages are Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog, Corwen, Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant and Llangynog. But in between the villages are miles of walks to explore. The larger towns of Llangollen and Bala are also within easy reach.
Berwyn Range things to do
There is plenty to keep you busy in the area. There are two famous walks which take in the Berwyn Range – the North Berwyn Way and the Dee Valley Way. You can read more about these walks here.
