    Tips

    At 2,730 feet (827 m) Cadair Berwyn is the highest point around and the highest of the Berwyn Hills. The views are great and it's also a quiet part of upland Wales, so you're likely to have the hills to yourself. You can reach the summit from various start points depending on the length of walk you want.

      Stunning views from the summit area and a great walk to take in eleven UK Nuttalls in one outing. Not the best of weather days but nice to be out in the quieter rather hidden hills of the Berwyns.

        Someone has savagely blocked off the path to cadair berwyn summit on this route with barbed wire. Lovely walk up, but was most disappointed that I couldn't reach the summit and north top.
