Walk from Glyndyfrdwy memorial hall
Walk down the A5 towards Llangollen for 5mins. When you come to the village hall, you can walk down the side of it. This is a lovely local walk with deep gulleys and old abandoned slate houses - kind of spooky but interesting! If you continue it brings to out up the hills with views of the valley
