  1. Last #WyeValleyWalk for the week, and the penultimate section of the walk as a whole. From Llangurig to Pont Rhydgaled, the route heading westwards, the river at over 1000 ft OD. The valley here is broader than it has been for a while, the river shallower, running clear over stone. Finishing at the confluence with Afon Tarrenig, the first river to join Afon Gwy.

    Looking forward to the walk up to the source on Pumlumon, whenever that might be.

  6. Another marvellous section of #WyeValleyWalk today, between Rhayader and Llangurig.

    Some big climbs, the total ascent over the 12 miles was over 600 metres. Beautiful plunging valleys, a late medieval farmhouse turned visitor centre at Gilfach, bluebell woods, a terrific Bronze Age kerbed cairn in a wonderful location, and views of Pumlumon and the source of the Gwy.

  11. A fine day on the #WyeValleyWalk today, walking the section between Newbridge and Rhayader.

    Not so close to the river as last time, but some beautiful spring woods full of bluebells, some striking upland landscapes, a likely Bronze Age standing stone on the later site of a churchyard, and an exciting bouncy suspension bridge to cross the Afon Elan at its confluence with Afon Gwy in the style of Indiana Jones. Less than 30 miles to the source now.

  16. A wonderful section of #WyeValleyWalk from Builth Wells to Newbridge on Wye today, using the #TrawsCymru T4.

    Cold to start, but the sun soon came out and the riverbank and Beltane woods were viscerally, achingly beautiful.

    A day to make the heart sing, with some lovely human interaction (for someone who likes solitude); kindness from a bus driver, a beekeeper and campervan driver.

    Lovely Bronze Age standing stone too.

  21. Back on the #WyeValleyWalk for Easter Saturday. An incredibly beautiful walk between Boughrood and Builth Wells/Llanfair-ym-Muallt.

    Barely saw anyone in 6 hours. Managed to fit in some prehistoric detours en-route: a fine standing stone, two Bronze Age round barrows, a Bronze Age cairn, two hilllforts and a joy of a very obscure stone circle with magic views of the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons.

  26. Last summer I started on a long held ambition to walk the River Wye/Afon Gwy from Severn to source. After doing 70 miles of the #WyeValleyWalk a combination of train difficulties, worsening weather and finally Covid stopped my progress at Hay on Wye.

    Delighted to be back on it today, a short 8 mile section of changeable spring weather and stunningly beautiful scenery between Hay and Boughrood, the Black Mountains an ever present companion.
