Your Adventures? They're Our Business!
Of course I could be wrong and it could be that these restrictions rumble on due to a spike or the continued mismanagement of the crisis by the AM’s and MP’s. If that’s the case then we’ll bump July too. But, all is currently looking good for July and what a month we have planned in – do check it out 🙂
I had to move my van from Canton to it’s store at Penarth Marina following the final elements of refitting it – a long journey into solar power and gas heating and sofa building. It’s done. My camper is now the best version of itself and the best van conversion I have ever worked on. It’s perfect for getting away in this weather that we are having and quite frustrating that that is not an option…
Oh Joy! Cosmeston and the Vale parks are to re-open! We should regard ourselves as lucky…
Here at Wales Outdoors HQ we have been working hard to restructure, reschedule and to develop new events for the lovely members and occasional walkers that join us on our adventures. We hope that you are coping with lockdown and although certainly suffering from withdrawals from the hills we know that both we and you are set to get out there as soon as is allowed.
We decided that the Covid 19 lockdown was a fine excuse to get out and explore the bits of Cardiff nearby and to get in some good walks away form the crush of Cardiff’s population in Bute Park.
In no particular order, some of the galleries we like a lot 🙂
THE MONDAY MOAN – A once a week spot for us to moan about the stuff that perhaps we should all be moaning about that little bit more…
Andy was off with a bad back and so David stepped in to deliver this fine walk in the far west of the Brecon Beacons National Park and taking in Llyn y Fan Fach of the Lady of the Lake legend as well as three major peaks.
To be brutally honest, the weather was looking just a little bit worse than awful. The heavens had opened yet again the day before, causing more flooding and I was in two minds as to whether to join the 8 Waterfalls Walk organised by Andrew Lamb of Wales Outdoors.
Graham is our foraging expert and just before the lockdown he led a walk that up-skilled participants with the tools for surviving the zombie apocalypse (and also taking in the highest waterfall in the Brecon Beacons National Park).
