Warden Walk: Pony Path
I met Gary at Ty Nant car park. We headed up the Pony Path in bright weather. Shortly after the 560m contour stile we walked into the cloud. We reached the Penygaer trig point and found a painted pebble. We good had a food break in the summit hut. We walked back down and out…

Y Foel
Quest to climb Y Foel. I didn’t follow the plan to the letter. I couldn’t find some paths or the route was blocked or impassable. It was approximately 5 miles round trip and took just under 2 hours including route finding, water breaks and photography pauses.

Llyn Trawsfynydd
A wander around Llyn Trawsfynydd. I parked in the carpark at the south end of the lake near the footbridge. I walked in a clockwise direction around the lake to do the sections on the main road out of the way. 9 miles
Mawddach Valley
A wander up the Mawddach valley from Cymer Abbey to Ganllwyd and back. I started at the car park near Cymer Abbey and the old Llanelltyd bridge, Pont Llanelltyd. I headed across the bridge and up through Llanelltyd. I followed a track out of the village and along the West side of the valley. I…
