Walk 3044 - The Rivals - Yr Eifl
| County/Area | Gwynedd | | Author | Lou Johnson | | Length | 4.5 miles / 7.3 km | | Ascent | 1535 feet / 465 metres | | Grade | moderate |
The Rivals, or Yr Eifl, rise steeply from the north coast of the Lleyn Peninsula and provide a superb objective for this walk. Although the route can be rough underfoot, these hills have a long history with extensive iron age ruins. In addition their isolated position mean that the views are extensive.

The classic Caterpillar Colorado style caught my eye. Having worn them for a solid month, I have found them to be a fantastic pair of boots that are very tough.
