Breathtaking, challenging and beautiful is the only way I can describe this area. With the opportunity to stop off for a swim in Llyn Cau half way it really is a must see

In 1974, long before green principles became mainstream, a small group of eco-enthusiasts created the Centre for Alternative Technology (or CAT, as it's affectionately known) in an old slate quarry, three miles north of Machynlleth. It was unique, and inspired a generation. Today, the centre’s beautiful School of the Environment runs excellent day courses, postgraduate courses and distance learning on practical topics such as earth ovens, composting toilets, raw food, upcycling, traditional crafts and harnessing renewable energy.

The former chapel houses a museum of modern art whose purpose is to showcase the work of current Welsh painters through a series of temporary exhibitions. Every August, the Tabernacl Art Competition takes place, during which a prize is awarded to the best artists. Their paintings are then exhibited and sold. The building also houses concert halls, where the village's annual music festival takes place (usually in mid-August).

The area is known for its natural history and for its industrial heritage. The Corris Craft Centre at Braichgoch showcases the work of local craftspeople. Several former slate mines penetrate the hillsides, and parts of what was once Braichgoch quarry can be visited on a tourist trip called "King Arthur's Labyrinth". Two miles south of Corris is the Centre for Alternative Technology. On the bluff above the village, known as the Braich Goch, stands the Hughes Memorial. It has been described as one of the most important objects in Wales.

Aberllefenni was a sanctuary for many evacuees during the Second World War. In the 1980’s a film called ‘Gwenoliaid’ (The Swallows) was filmed here, depicting the lives of evacuees from London. Aberllefenni Slate Quarry is one of the oldest working quarries in Wales. It operated on an industrial basis from 1810 and employed 190 people at its peak. The quarry ceased extraction in 2002, although some surface work continues today. The slate mill is still in operation and dresses Welsh slate for domestic and industrial use. The bell on the roof of the old quarry office would ring at the beginning and end of every working day. All around is slate waste. Slate from Aberllefenni was considered to be ‘the best in North Wales’. However not all the material extracted was good quality, so waste slate was dumped along the valley floor.

The Climachx trail may be short, but it packs a punch bigger than the 15km length would suggest. The Climachx was built in 2005 by ecotrails and is sited in the Dyfi forest; home of the Howies Dyfi Enduro. This trail is graded as red, although the second half of the last section (Tony the Tiger) is graded as black. Natural feeling singletrack with technical rocky sections, drop offs, rock slabs and the scary left hander before the final switchback descent. Look out for the big red arrow or you’ll be taking a bigger drop than you bargained for! The final descent – ‘Tony the Tiger’ is the highlight. The trail is looked after and managed by the local volunteer group ‘Dyfi Valley MTB’ see www.dyfimountainbiking.org.uk for more details.
