and occasionally rides a bike.
A word of warning. The walk descriptions are not detailed enough to guide you - please take a map. The batteries never run out, and you always have a signal. Oh, And don't take left or right as gospel!

From Aberdaron round the headland of Pen-y-cil

 Thursday 08 July

Pen-y-cil walk around the headland, in much better conditions than last year, when we were well and truly soaked.  
1700 + feet of climbing. Just over 10 miles. Some very steep climbs and descents.
Best foot forward?
Avon Daron and Aberdaron



A boat leaves for Bardsey Island
















People: A couple who said we could avoid the up and down to one cove near Aberdaron…
A man who works in Porthmadog who told us half his life story before continuing on his way towards Nefin. A long walk…
A couple who told us they thought one of the horses was a zebra, until they realised it was wearing a coat…



Back home for dinner, then we drove up to Mynydd Mawr for the sunset view.
A satisfying day.

Pen y Cil from Aberdaron - a 13 mile walk in the rain

 July 22nd 2020


We decided to walk round the end of the peninsula along the coastal path, starting from Aberdaron. Unfortunately I lost the signal. This was rugged as well as wet, and the views, which must have been wonderful, were hidden by cloud and mist.
