Beginning the trail at the Cae'n y Coed Car Park, the Volcano Trail offer you the chance to discover Coed y Brenin's amazing geological history.

 

A mixture of forest tracks, minor roads and various paths along this circular walk give you time to take in the fantastic geological features of Coed y Brenin.

 

The walk offers spectacular views of the extinct volcano, Rhobell Fawr from the very highest point in the park, Moel Hafod Owen, at 435m.
