09-Jul: The woods of Clun and Bury Ditches hill fort.

16-Jul: Bryngwyn
Park on the grass beside a tarmacked track that heads East off the hill road South from the Harbour caravan site. An undulating walk across moorland and some remote farms. Starting on the common above Bryngwyn, towards Colva and Glasnant.

Conditions:7 miles and 1450ft of ascent. None of the climbs are steep. A few stiles and a newly rebuilt bridge.
Leader:Peter Loughran 01597 822512
23-Jul: St Harmon circular (well almost, more like 315 degrees)
The parking spot is a large lay by adjacent to a forest entrance. The walk ends few mikes away so I'll sort out leaving a car in downtown St Harmon so that the drivers can be ferried back to the start point.
Start Point:SO 01370 71947
Conditions:6.5miles and 500 feet of ascent. As we are starting high up we get into good views almost from the start. Nearly all on established tracks with a few gentle ups and downs. There are a few waterlogged places but they are fairly easy to navigate. No stiles. No yomping. No cows when checking it out. Huge numbers of sheep though; all seemed rather friendly. A prize for the person who spots the spelling mistake on the walk!
