The Harlech countryside is exceptional, it is attention-holding landscape. There are so many wonderful rock outcroppings. Oak trees can appear to grow out of the rock faces, and woodland floors have boulders covered with thick green cushions of moss. Mosses are on stone walls and even up tree trunks, sometimes with ferns high up which wave to you in the gentlest of breezes. Most surprisingly, there are places where you can stand to look around and imagine yourself to be in any time period since the glaciers retreated, because there is no evidence of what man has done since. It is special. Go slowly and quietly, and these walks will give you a taste of this precious area.
