Walk from the National Trust's Princess of Gwynedd centre at Craflwyn set in the heart of Nant Gwynant, one of the most dramatic and beautiful valleys in Wales. From the centre there is a waymarked trail taking you past waterfalls and through beautiful oak woodland to reach this summit of this legendary hill, where Merlin once trod and where a dragon still sleeps. At the top you’ll find remains of a square tower and defensive ramparts belonging to the ancient princes of Gwynedd. There are also longer options to take in the falls of Watkins Path, Lake Dinas and back along the river to Beddgelert.
