Day Three on the The Cambrian Way mountain trail 479 km (298 miles) with a total ascent of 22,460 m (73,700 ft). I think it could be Britain's hardest long distance trail. Its hard to say but looking at the map i think i started todays episode around the Mynydd Garnclochdy area i want give exact camping locations away. I was so wet from the rain all night i set about getting ready to walk around 4am just to keep warm. I was no risk at cold from the time of Year and in good health. So walked back up towards Mynydd Garnclochdy i think. The rain came back on top the hill. The rain was very bad so much so i could only see about couple of meters ahead what with the mist as well as the dark even with two powerful lights. By this time my cannon camera was destroyed by the weather i should know by now and my phone was useless take note people think phone navigation fine lucky i know this i used my garmin fenix3 gps watch with the track loaded onto so i knew i was heading in the general dir

First of sorry about the shaky camera work and terrible sound. This was filmed before i upgraded to gopro 7 and gimbal. The gimbal is now broke and i still need a microphone that handles wind on the gopro 7. I also badly need more hard drives ideally i need four 8gb hard drives but for now one will have to do. If i do not get these there maybe a big hold on future videos until i do unless i can get the funs together as i this is a hobby not a job.

Last night i camped at Hafod y Llan Campsite https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/holidays/hafod-y-llan-campsite-wales# and it also had electric sockets so i could charge my gear. In today's episode i am taking the official route.  I walked along Llyn Gwynant lake pass another campsite but not as cheap as one i stayed at. Then i walked along Llyn Dinas then along a river where i passed a copper mine which you can go in its not free but if you can afford to i would think it be really cool to see. Not long after i passed another campsite which is just outside of Beddgelert which would be handy if you want to have a wonder around the town. Emrys House mini supermarket there has very little and not cheap. However i do remember there being a bus stop there so you could get a bus to some where maybe with a better supermarket. And i missed Gelert’s Grave but lucky for me i am going do all this again starting from where i come of the official route although this is all the official route today. Also note at the time i did this there was no mobile phone signal the whole day. Then it was a walk along wet slippy rock path along a fast flowing river which is where i had a look in a tunnel. After then it was onto Nantmor that has a station on the  Welsh Highland Railway if trains are your thing it looks worth checking out. This part next part is also the Snowdonia Slate Trail. I wild camped the night at the bass of Yr Arddu. It was a windy night and the weather was only going get worse. Subscribe for the next episode was i almost can blown of the mountain.

Any one taking on this route will have good navigation skills ok with strong winds on steep ridge walks. Have a very good level of fitness. I have personally found this trail to be the hardest in  Britain. I found it even more hard than the Te Aroara trail in New Zealand which is much longer. Which i both carried 40 to 50kg on my back.
