Waterfalls Walk from Ystradfellte - Sun 15th May

Starting from Ystradfellte we will follow the Mellte river south before we head west to return via the Nedd Fechan river. Scenery is picturesque limestone country and we will see the Clun Gwyn waterfalls and plenty of lambs! (There is a slight change as we won't be going under Sgwd yr Eira as mentioned in the programme and the walk is slightly shorter than advertised).

Distance: 6 Miles

Difficulty: Mostly easy but one part moderate needing sturdy footwear as it is bit of a scramble.

Meeting: 9.30 at County Hall or 10.30 in Ystradfellte carpark (head north from Pontneddfechan in the Neath valley). Please let Barbara know on 07810 715390 if you are going straight there.

Saturday 21st May - Crazy Golf Challenge Walk and Evening Meal

There are two crazy golf courses in Swansea, one by the Boating Lake near Pub on the Pond and the other in Southend Gardens in Mumbles. Provided the weather is good, join us for an afternoon of crazy antics to test your skills on Swansea's locally-themed crazy golf courses, with a walk along the promenade between the two.

In the summer programme, we've arranged a meal on the last Friday of every month. In May, we'll be away in Snowdonia that day, so for those who'd like to join us, we'll be going for a drink and meal in Mumbles after the crazy golf.

Full details to follow next week.

For details call Martin S on 07743593068.
