Section 2

Llanaelhaearn to Nant Gwrtheyrn

Tre’r Ceiri - "Town of the Giants" is the largest and best preserved Iron Age Hillfort in Wales. It contains the well preserved remains of 150 huts and must, in its heyday during the Roman occupation, have had a large population. The outer wall is intact and encloses also a huge Bronze Age burial cairn.

Distance 6 miles / 9.6 km

Terrain Steady uphill walking on road and then a steep walk on a prepared path with some loose stones up to the Fort, and then a long descent to the villages of Llithfaen and Nant. Fabulous views of Snowdonia to the East and along the Llŷn to the West.
