Aran Fawddwy Mountain Walk. The Arans are the highest mountains South of Snowdon and offer stunning walking and climbing up to the summit, Aran Fawddwy at 907m. The Arans are relatively unpopular only due to their remote location. Lucky for those staying at Foel Ortho Bunkhouse, Farmhouse or Treehouse, however, it’s only nearby! The Arans form part of the mostly southwest-northeast ridge between Dolgellau and Bala that continues west as Cadair Idris.
