Added Ffestiniog route above as it is slightly longer than the Beddgelert one and some say better ?

Sadly after checking that the journey time is going to be 7 hours for me to get to the camp site, I have to back out.

Looks like it will be awesome, so am gutted to miss out. I'll just have to look forward to the photos.
