Ystwyth Gorge Walk (1 mile)
This spectacular route takes the walker on a long, narrow loop up one side of the Ystwyth gorge and down the other. It connects with both the Lady’s and Gentleman’s Walks and can be walked as an addition to either. Despite the dramatic scenery along the walk, the gradients are relatively gentle, but it is not a route suitable for those who dislike steep drops beside the path.
The walk is accessed most directly via the Lady’s Walk (blue posts) by following it in reverse past the church and over the forest road.
The focal point of the Ystwyth Gorge Walk is the Chain Bridge and nearby Gothic Arcade- a ruined stone arch that overlooks the bridge and a bend in the river with its remarkable rock formations. The bridge is thought to be the oldest of its type in Europe and uses the original iron rock anchors to support the “stressed ribbon” walkway. It was restored in 2003 with the aid of a grant from the Headly Trust.
It was a lovely day, i had a great time and would reccommend it to everyone!
