Glyndŵr’s Way Run

Named after Welsh revolutionary Owain Glyndŵr, Glyndŵr’s Way forms a 135-mile (217km) horseshoe-loop through the diverse treats of the hilly Mid Welsh countryside.

With rolling farmland, open moorland, lapping lakes, lush green hills, spectacular waterfalls, unspoilt rivers and thriving forests, the terrain is pleasingly varied and often undulating.

All in all, Glyndŵr’s Way is a scenic but sometimes demanding trail.

Interested in making this a circular route? A stretch of Offa’s Dyke Path can easily be added to bring you back to the start of the trail. Contact us for details.
