More New Routes!

Lots more new routes added to the OUTDOORSmagic Routes section over the past few days including three classic trails up Snowdon, an ascent of England's highest peak from Wasdale, a North Yorks moors yomp and a Carneddau classic.

In addition, OM Routes Editor, Dave Mycroft has set up a Twitter page, where he's linking to new routes as they go live, so you can use that as the basis for an RSS feed if you want to. Or simply marvel at the questionable wonderfulness of Twitter. There's an OUTDOORSmagic Twitter page as well if you're that way inclined.


On the routes front, new stuff includes Snowdon via the Watkin Path, the classic approach from the south side of the mountain and a lot quieter than the crowded Llanberis and Pen y Pas classics. And Snowdon via the Rhyd Ddu Path an eastern classic. Then there's the Snowdon Ranger, another stunning but quieter option on the mountain.

More from Snowdonia in the form of a classic Tryfan / Glyderrau / Y Garn traverse and a linear route along the Carneddau. Note that you can join some of these Welsh routes together for a full Welsh 3000s round.

Other new stuff includes Scafell Pike from Wasdale Head and an easy wander around Levisham Moor in North Yorkshire.

And of course there's lots more beside, just check out the Routes Section front page and use the search engine. You can use OM's routes software to share your favourite routes with other OMers or simply map out your own favourite walks, check distances and ascent figures and keep them on file for your own personal use. Enjoy.
