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.
