Lady's Walk
 

The Lady's Walk is one of the two classic circular routes created by Thomas Johnes in his first years at Hafod (1780's) and described by many early visitors. It takes in scenery that varies widely in character, contrasting the relatively gentle landscape of the open parkland with narrow wooded valleys and rushing streams.

How to get there:

Lady's Walk can be started from Hafod Car Park in Hafod. Cwmystwyth is the nearest town or village.

From the Hafod Arms Hotel in Devil's Bridge take the B4574 to Cwmystwyth. Pass the The Arch car park and proceed downhill. Turn right shortly after passing the "Cwmystwyth" sign. Go past ADAS Pwllpeiran and proceed to a T junction and turn right. Pass Hafod Church and turn left into Hafod Car Park. , From Pontrhydygroes proceed north on the B4343 and turn right onto the B4574 towards Cwmystwyth when you see the Forestry Commission Hafod sign. Proceed along this road for 1 mile. The Hafod Car Park is on the right hand side.
