Walking locally
For an exhilarating half-day's pleasure with stunning views of sea- and mountainscape:
From Fairbourne, just 2 miles away, take the Fairbourne and Barmouth miniature railway to Porth Penrhyn and join the ferry to Barmouth. You could enjoy some time here, maybe have some lunch in one of the many fine restaurants or continue on. Walk from Barmouth to Morfa Mawddach along the toll footbridge, a mostly timber structure of 113 spans plus two steel spans over the bed of the river, (if you encounter a train during the crossing - don't worry, the bridge always vibrates!). From Morfa Mawddach, walk, or take the train, back to Fairbourne. The walk can be joined at any intermediate point, or taken in any direction.
