The Dyfi Valley Way is a

long distance footpath in Mid Wales.[1]

Route

The 108 miles (174 km) route runs all the way up one side of the

Camlan, the Way takes in the strenuous climb up to the summit of Aran Fawddwy, which at 2,971 ft (906 metres) is the highest peak south of Snowdon and the 16th highest summit in Wales. At Llanuwchllyn the route retraces its steps south of the Dovey through Llanymawddwy and Machynlleth
.

The walk links with the Meirionnydd Coast Walk[2] at Aberdyfi and with the Ceredigion Coast Path at Borth.[3]

The route is partly waymarked, and is highly varied in character; it leads the walker along seldom walked routes. A good map is required and, if possible, a route guide (which is available from the local Tourist Information Centres).

The Dyfi valley (Welsh: Dyffryn Dyfi) is in Mid Wales and the river's lower reaches are sometimes regarded as the boundary between north and south Wales.
