From Dolserau Hall I walked to Starbucks and caught the T2 bus to Minffordd Hotel (Dol Idris car park). From there I walked up the Minffordd Path.
Near the start of the Minffordd Path are the ruins of a building associated with the Idris soft drinks company.
The path starts up by a stream:




As you get higher there are views back to Llyn Mwyngil:





Llyn Cau is a deep glacial lake inside a cwm on Cadair Idris.


Views of the coast from the top:

The walk back to Dolgellau doesn't seem to be a marked path so I got lost in a few places:

Return to the house down the torrent:

About This SiteHere is some information I have gathered together about getting to and walking from HF houses when leaving the car at home. On these pages I have also put some history about former HF houses I have visited. The information here is based on my visits to HF houses over the years. It may be out of date so don't rely on anything here without checking. If you find any errors why not let others know by putting a post on the HF Holiday Fans ( unofficial) Facebook forum. I will try to quote such posts here so they don't get lost. This is information I have discovered over the years which would have been useful to know before. Unfortunately the travel information on the HF website, for getting to houses by public transport, is poor. I think it would be better if the information on this page were on the HF website. |
