The Cool_Dudes travelled to Pembrokeshire for this walk. It is an easy cliff top walk with a leg near the Bosherton Lilly Ponds. We would like to record more walks like this, but the weather was against it. One bonus was standing on the Eight-arch Bridge watching and otter swim in the water below. The walk was accompanied by the noise of artillery and machine gun fire from the Castle Martin range.

A varied short route by the estuary and through the wildwoods. The route is more difficult than the guides suggest. The rocks beside Garron Pill are slippery. The path in the woods beside Daugleddau is rough and undulating. An interesting but demanding walk

A pleasant walk between suburban villages. Thankfully, there is little development to spoil this walking route from a forty-year-old leaflet. A walk made better by the glorious later summer sunshine.

The oldest bell in the British Isles? That was the claim made for the bell in St Andrew's church. The ringing of the 12th century bell ended a late summer walks in the remotest Lincolnshire Wolds. This mini-festival of four walks ended with an excellent afternoon tea in the church.

A walk in the Lincolnshire Wolds, close to the highest point in the county. There are panoramic views on most of the route. The cathedral at Lincoln,17 mile away, is visible on the horizon. The bench, where the Cool Dudes stopped for lunch, must have one of the widest views south of the Humber.

A linear route made possible by the Rowsley to Bakewell bus service. This linear route between the two stops was far enough. It entailed a short, steep climb through Manner's Wood on rocky paths. Once out of the trees, the distant moors could be seen, beyond the Chatsworth estate and the Derwent valley

A Ramblers walk on a glorious autumn day. Through the woods and over the rise before the Witham valley. Crossing Branston Top gave views of the cathedral and the distant Wolds. The walk ended at the village hall with an excellent, and plentiful, lunch before the business of the annual general meeting.
