Tour Overview
In 1657, George Fox, founder of the Quakers (Religious Society of Friends), came to Dolgellau preaching that everyone has the Inner Light of God within, and can communicate directly with God. Quakers live and work believing that each person is equally important to God. Following Jesus' teaching in the Bible, Quakers refuse to swear oaths. Many people in this area became Quakers; many left for Pennsylvania following persecution. This trail shows some Quaker places in the area and many spectacular views. (Map: Explorer OL23)
