Hiking is a great way to connect with nature, get some exercise, and enjoy the great outdoors. Whether you're a seasoned walker or someone considering giving it a go, it's a great opportunity to appreciate the beauty of the natural world.

Here are some ideas on how to celebrate a day dedicated to hiking:

Hiking up Rhobell Fawr was an incredible adventure! It's a stunning mountain in Snowdonia, Wales, known for its beautiful landscapes and challenging trails. The panoramic views from the top are breathtaking.

A few weeks ago we hiked up Y Garn. It's a hard slog up to the top but it's well worth it for the views! Oh, and stopping at @hangin_pizzeria in Betws y Coed for an early supper!

As it was the Saturday before Christmas, we fully anticipated Betws Y Coed to be busy. Dreary weather and icy conditions meant it was surprisingly quiet and perfect for organising the last Christmas gifts.

It also meant that we could make an impromptu lunch stop at Olif, a Welsh tapas restaurant with Welsh/Mediterranean fusion menu. We had wanted to visit for a long time after hearing numerous rave reviews.

We are lucky to work closely with so many talented makers and artists and this Welsh Gift Guide is all about celebrating them and their work.
