This guidebook publishes, for the first time, definitive coverage of climbing and bouldering in Elenydd: between Pembrokeshire to the south and Cader Idris to the north, the upland area of Elenydd extends across parts of the counties of Ceredigion and Powys in Central Wales. Large parts of this remote, sparsely populated "Green Desert" of Wales are relatively inaccessible - here, the delights of the mountain crags, rocky outcrops, sea cliffs, and quarries of unknown mid-Wales are finally revealed.
620 routes and 240 boulder problems are detailed with excellent area maps and detailed photo diagrams covering the crags and bouldering. There is also a section on winter climbing and there are plenty of inspiring action shots throughout.
The guide is very nicely laid out in an unusual horizontal format that works very well and the area could easily be visited by anyone holidaying in Pembroke or Snowdonia.
