Snowdonia is immersed in archaeological history and within the boundaries of the National Park there are sites of archaeological interest showing how people inhabited the area through the years. There are a number of key areas where visitors and locals can trace archaeological developments and see for themselves the historical importance assigned to this area. Our network of archaeological walks includes Craig y Ddinas, a hill fort that has remnants of both the Iron Age and Roman period. You can also trace the area’s Neolithic past with the Capel Garmon walk above Betws y Coed where you’ll pass a Neolithic burial chamber dating back to the 3rd Millennium BC. All these walks are leisure walks and will take between 3-4 hours, walking at a leisurely pace.
