FRITH historical Ordnance Survey maps are reproductions of first edition maps prepared by the Ordnance Survey in the late 19th and early 20th Century. The original maps were published in numbered sheets and of course some locations happen to be in the middle of a sheet whilst others could be right on the edge of a sheet. Now, by digitally "stitching" together all the sheets that comprise England & Wales and in some cases, Scotland, Frith is able to offer you a map with any location at the centre, regardless of where it appeared on the original sheets. The Llŷn is also one of the most steadfast strongholds of the Welsh language, and a great place to gain an introduction to it if you haven’t encountered it before. It looks a lot more difficult than it actually is, and any attempt to speak a few words is always warmly welcomed. Edwards, Thomas (2014). Wales and the Britons (1sted.).

The footpath then descends to Tre'r Ceiri where you can explore the interesting Iron Age stone hut circles before descending the mountain.

This walk starts in the village and follows the path west along the pretty beach and Aberdaron Bay. You then head south to Porth Meudwy where you can catch boats to Bardsey Island. The island has some nice walks and is a great place for birdwatching. Looking like something out of Harry Potter is the Mountain Spirit, a wonderful steam train that takes passengers along the entire length of the Ffestiniog Railway.
