Sun 5th Aug, Neuadd Valley

Pen-y-Fan, Cribyn and the Neuadd Valley - Sunday 5th August



This Sunday's walk goes up the well trodden path from Storey Arms to Pen-y-Fan, but then veers off the beaten track and along a great ridge walk around the Neuadd Reservoir. If all is clear we should get a view like this along Cribyn and Fan-y-Big. Better than sitting in front of the TV in your pyjamas eh?



Here are the details:

Distance - 12 Miles
Difficulty - Moderate
Meeting Points - 0930 at Swansea County Hall carpark, or about 1015 at the carpark opposite the Storey Arms at the foot of Pen-y-Fan.


This walk can be somewhat exposed, so remember to bring the proper gear.

If you're not sure about anything, give Doug a call on 07766652837.



Cheers, and see you there!

Newsletter - Talybont Reservoir

Hi all,

Despite the worst weather on record, the Tawe Trekkers continue to walk on come rain or shine. Let's hope we have some good conditions on Sunday's walk around Talybont Reservoir!

Talybont Reservoir Circuit - Sun 22nd July


Jeez this is a bloody great walk. A bit different from our usual stamping ground, it follows a path round the Talybont Reservoir in the Eastern Brecon Beacons (pictured) and then trails around the spectacular ridges of Craig y Fan Ddu and Graig Fan Las. It's a fair trek at around 13 miles, but nothing too steep to tackle.

Here's the vital statistics:

Meeting Points: County Hall Carpark at 0930 or the carpark alongside the Talybont Reservoir at about 1030 (GR099197)

Difficulty: Moderate

Distance: 13 Miles

For more info give Doug a call on 07766652837.
