My Country Walks



Welcome to my new blog following my move to the Cotswolds in early 2018.

Previously living on the edge of Dartmoor I shared details of my walks on Dartmoor on my previous blog My Dartmoor Walks. As I explore this new area I will share details of the routes here.

Wednesday 5th October 2022 - Crickhowell

With the Winchcombe Probus group staying at The Old Rectory in Crickhowell for two nights. Wednesday was the day for the walk along the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal to Llangynidr. A very wet start which put some off the first leg of the walk for lunch in the Coach and Horses, Llangynidr. Just over 5 miles and flat all the way.


Joining the canal at the start

This barge was having some difficulty negotiating a fallen tree

After a while the rain stopped giving us a good view across to Table Mountain.

Leaving the canal for a diversion through the village to the pub.

Everyone on the trip was at the pub. For the return walk some left us to return by car and some joined us to do the walk

Much better conditions as these two barges pass
