Hi all,



The weather's been a bit dodgy lately and unfortunately the walk had to be cancelled last weekend. Sarah's BBQ turned into an inside job, but a great time was still had by all, especially as we had 5 Koreans and a South African join us in an interesting cultural exchange. Looking ahead; let's hope we have some good conditions on Saturday's walk around Talybont Reservoir!

Talybont Reservoir Circuit - Sat 16th August


A bit different from our usual stamping ground this one, it follows a path round the Talybont Reservoir in the Eastern Brecon Beacons 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, and has about 650 metres of ascent. Here's the lowdown:



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



Difficulty: Moderate-to-Strenuous



Distance: 13 Miles



For more info or directions give me, Doug a call on 07766652837.

It's My Birthday and I'll Cry if I Want To...



Don't mean to hog the newsletter(!), but if anyone's up for joining me for some low-key birthday celebrations after the walk then we'll be meeting at a time and place TBC in Swansea for a drink or two.
