Trails: Dyfnant is an upland forest situated on the edge of the Cambrian mountains just south of Lake Vyrnwy. Some parts of it are more upland than others. It is made up of hard packed forestry trails that have been well maintained as this area is used a lot by trotting horses and carriages.
Directions: From Welshpool head west on the A458 for 15 and a half miles. Just as you are leaving the village of Llangadfan (after passing the Cann Office Hotel) turn right along the B4395. The entrance to the Forest is about a mile and a half on the left. The OS grid reference is SJ033154 and the Post Code of the Cann Office is SY21 0PL
