On our way to Diffwys, Snowdonia
A week staying near Betws Garmon, on the road between Beddgelert and Caernarfon. Hike 7 took us on to Diffwys from Tal-y-bont. The forecast said 10% chance of rain. We had at least 3 hours of rain in the low cloud. Consequently, it was boggy and rough and we didn't see much until the afternoon, when we were almost back at the car.
