The Cat's Back & Black Hill loop — Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park
Absolutely brilliant walk in near perfect conditions, it is straight up the steepest part of the walk from the car park though, however once on the ridge the views are stunning and the return loop through the valley has some equally impressive views.
In wet conditions I think this would…

From Tenby to Lydstep
Nice wander from Tenby back to the Haven Site at Lydstep via the coastal footpath.
Only downside was the final 1/2 mile which was surprisingly overgrown for a coastal footpath

Castle Hill country park & Benion pools
Whilst back visiting in Leicestershire I took the opportunity to revisit my mental health saviour from the past.
I was fortunate to watch the development of both the park and fishing pools over a 20 year period, from Badgers sets, foxes dens, medieval fish ponds, home to a section of…

Groby pool to Newtown Linford loop
Back to Leicester for the weekend..
A little later than usual for our annual Beltane walk in the old Quarry between Groby pool and Newtown Linford (Bradgate Park), what a difference a week makes to the bluebells, which are going past their best and being swallowed by brambles

Ruins of Tŷ Dŷn Mawr – Pont Y Pandy Slate Mill Ruins loop from Tyddyn mawr
Beautiful short walk in the Welsh hillside where we could have spent the day.
Stunning lake, a short walk including a part over the old tramway to an abandoned slate mine, then returned via a lovely tea room with spectacular views over the lake .

Llyn Llywelyn loop — Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri / Snowdonia National Park
Second of our short break to Snowdonia wanders, easy and pleasant walk on good forestry tracks, the walk is predominantly through the forest, arriving at Llyn Llywelyn there are some of the best views of Snowdon itself.
If we did this walk again the only bit I'd change is on…
