Hobbit Day 22 Sep 2023

Hobbit Day

Bilbo Baggins, the protagonist and title character of "The Hobbit", once famously said, "not all those who wander are lost," but in this realm of Castell y Gwynt, momentarily losing your sense of direction is half the fun! Though it looks like Middle-earth from the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, this craggy place is nestled in Snowdonia, Wales. Castell y Gwynt, which translates to "Castle of the Wind," is perched high on Glyder Fach, one of Snowdonia"s rugged peaks.
