WALKS

Walk down to Rudland and around Betws-y-Coed

There were plenty of sheep on walks staring whilst we passed by. The walk down to Rudland and back took almost 4 hours including breaks. The route we took was the same route we did for our sponsored walk back in year 8. The walk down was lovely and entertaining because of new sights and the thrill of doing something out of the blue, just because you could. However, the walk back up felt longer and by the time we got back our legs felt like jelly and we just crashed on the couch. What I found motivating about doing this walk was that I completed it. There were no cheats where we got a lift or took the bus. Also the sheep made the walk a whole lot more interesting!

I had been to Betws-Y-Coed a few times since I moved here in the U.K. but I had never come across this wooden bridge before because this was only seen if you followed the trails. We followed the river and circled the place.We went quite early so there weren't that many people around. It was very foggy and quite cold but that type of weather isn't really surprising. Again I felt good about this walk because we completed the trails that we found. Along the way we came across a church, this bridge shown in the picture, trains and gold courses. I think when you go to a place it can show many different sides to the place. The main touristy areas and then there's the place's other beautiful spots that are a bit less appreciated but still beautiful.
