WALK 30: Thursday 11th April 2019. Bute Park and Blackweir, Cardiff
After catching a bus to Cardiff Bay we travelled on the waterbus from the Oval Basin to Bute Park, adjacent to Cardiff Castle. After a coffee we continued up to Blackweir and picked up the cycle track along the former Glamorgan Coal Canal.
WALK 31 : WALKING/RAMBLING GROUP - WEDNESDAY, 6 NOVEMBER 2019
The Walking/Rambling Group, unlike the ‘Strollers', concentrates on gradually longer walks for those of us who are able to walk that extra distance. The Group coordinator is Terry.
Our first walk was between 5 and 6 miles. We walked from Taffs Well along the Taff Trail, Craig-yr-Alt (RidgewayWalk), Twyn-Garwa and Caerphilly Common. Finally we stopped at the Caerphilly Mountain Snack Bar before returning to Caerphilly (Mountain Road).
WALK 32 : WALKING/RAMBLING GROUP - MONDAY, 28 MARCH 2022
We met up at Pontypool Park Leisure Centre Café and walked uphill to the ‘Shell Grotto’ and towards the ‘Folly Tower’. Turning right along Folly Lane we walked to Mamhilad, and at the bridge, joined the footpath along the Monmouth & Brecon Canal. When we reached the Pontymoile Basin Bridge (no 52), we crossed it and stopped at the picnic area for refreshments. Finally we re-entered the park via the Pontymoile Gate. The walk was approximately 6 miles and took around 3 hours.
