We met with the owner of the Bryn Elltyd Eco guest house and he took us on an adventure walk up into the mountains. We walked round Llyn Cymorthin where they were filming an episode of Treasure Island from CBBC. They were using one of the slate mines next to the lake. We then climbed up the hill and passed a number of old deserted slate mines, water wheels , and villages. We headed across the hilltop to the head of the next valley and saw some fantastic views down to Porthmadoc.

CALCULATE CALORIES

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
