Leete Path
The Leete path is a footpath between Loggerheads and Cilcain and it also makes up part of the Clwydian Way. The leete here was originally a 2 metres wide and 1.5metre deep water channel which was built to divert water from the river at Loggerheads in order to service the nearby water mills year-round. The River Alyn usually disappears during part of the year due to swallow holes in the limestone river bed. The footpath rises slowly above the river, being at the same height as the river at Loggerheads, to being several metres above it where this photograph was taken (and even more so nearer Cilcain).

Ceubwll y Diafol (Devil's Gorge)
In years gone by, the limestone cliffs at Loggerheads were mined for lead. The two walls at the entrance of the cave are used for climbing, with fixed points, the south side having overhanging routes. You can also abseil down into the gorge itself. The photo is taken from the footbridge over the gorge.

Footbridge across the Afon Alun / River Alyn below Bryn y Castell
This path and bridge is popular: the snow fell overnight and at 9.00 a.m. (ish) this path is already fairly well trodden.
