2012
WALK 1 - SATURDAY, JANUARY 28TH - ABERPORTH / BLAENPORTH
This is a six mile circular walk, graded as easy with no stiff
climbs and with only two stiles to negotiate. The walk is mainly on
farm tracks and footpaths, generally good underfoot even in winter
weather, and includes a wooded section along the Poet's Walk, a
tribute to the local poet Dic Jones.
Meet at the sea front car park next to the Ship Inn in Aberporth at
10am. Refreshments afterwards at the Ship.
WALK 2 - SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25TH CROSS INN AND CAERWEDROS
A local walk, mainly on quiet lanes and a bridleway through
woodland, circular and six miles long. The walk is classed as easy
to moderate and there are no stiles. Starting from the Penrhiwgaled
pub at Cross Inn, the route goes along to Caerwedros before changing
direction, passing Synod Mill and joining a bridleway through
woodland on the way back to Cross Inn.
Meet in the car park of the Penrhiwgaled pub at Cross Inn at 10am.
Following the walk we will call at the pub for refreshments.
WALK 3 - SATURDAY, MARCH 25TH CARDIGAN WILDLIFE PARK AND PENYBRYN
Another walk graded as easy, this one takes us through the Cardigan
Wildlife Park to Cilgerran, following which we go past the small
village of Penybryn to join bridleways and footpaths across farmland
leading down to the outskirts of St Dogmaels. The last section is
along another bridleway leading directly back to Cardigan. The walk
is approximately 5.5 miles, there are no stiles and mostly level
walking. Fine countryside and Teifi Estuary views.
Meet in the parking areas in the old railway station yard in
Cardigan (over the old Cardigan Bridge out of town and take first
left) at 10am. Refreshments afterwards at the Eagle Inn.
PLEASE NOTE
We all walk at our own risk so please be suitably equipped (walking
boots and wet gear strongly recommended during the winter months)
and take good care of yourselves and fellow walkers.
