Hi all,
Just to let you know we have just returned from an excellent few days in Wales. Shocking to know that we didn't do ANY lanes as we just never had time!

Cottage we stayed at was advertised as remote with trackway access, and sure enough we had to negotiate a steep track everyday to get to our cottage and thankgod it didn't snow to bad otherwise it would be a winch job to get out!

We did two days of walking. Our two year old was strapped to my back, so I am now aching from head to toe! First walk was around Llyn Idwal lake which was recommended by a walking shop, and was a nice easy walk. Second days walk was up the Watkin Path at the back of Snowdon, but instead of going all the way up we walked up to the slate cottages and then came back down on the Cwm Llan.

The next day we had booked with 'ProAdventures' who are based in Llangollen. I can highly recommend them as they had me and my 6 year old son rock climbing up a 50ft rock face and then abseiled down again, and then in the afternoon my wife and son Kayaked up the canal.

It was a super weekend, and will certinally be back.

Thanks all for your info.
