This walk combines the popular and delightful Leete Path walk with a visit to the village of Cilcain and the White Horse Inn. As the River Alyn drops below the level of the leete, fine views of Moel Famau and other parts of the Clwydian Hills open up to your left. A long traverse on a bridleway across the flanks of Moel Famau gives open views to the east before the descent to the River Alyn and the Leete Path.

Great walk. Takes with a brisk walk about 2.5 hours. Point to note: There is a stretch at Waypoint 12 which is 30 metres of ankle to shin deep mud. I have been here in November and March and its exactly the same. Its also in the shade so I don't expect a dramatic change in the summer so gaiters would help, if you have them. Thanks for the route!

Excellent directions thank you. A decent walk though not as good as walk 680 by the same author. Main niggle was 75% of the walk is in the shade which, on a crisp cloudless Autumn day is not the best. Mind you the free range eggs at Waymark 14 are excellent so make sure you take a pound with you.
