On Monday, 23 September, Meirionnydd Ramblers take on the Giant's Head for a joint walk with Barmouth Walking Festival.

Meet at Penmaenpool and ascend on paths through forest and pleasant woodland.

The walk continues across several fields before reaching a rocky outcrop known locally as the Giant's Head with views of Cadair Idris on one side and down across the estuary on the other.

There is then a gentle descent before taking a break for lunch after which walkers have the choice of returning straight back to Penmaenpool or following a two-mile extension which includes some ascent before the final return.

This is a Group grade C, circular, moderate, seven mile / 11.3kilometre walk with an ascent of 984feet / 300 metres.

The start time is 10am and the estimated finish time, 3pm

Start at Penmaenpool car park (Grid Ref: SH695185).

The start time is when the walk commences. Please arrive earlier to ensure you are ready for the start
