Our walk today was centred on Brechfa.

Route

There was no steady walk in but first  through a ford and then a steep climb alongside Banc y Darren. Did we stay up high, of course not we descended down to the Afon Cothi.

Looking down the steep lane

Road?

Did we stay down, of course not we climbed again before a final long and windy descent again to the Afon Cothi.

Bracket fungi of some kind

Brechfa in the distance

We did have a bit of an adventure towards the end when the path we chose (i.e. The so called Navigator) led to a slash and burn episode, but we made it onto the correct path.

Trust me…..

This is the way…

The views all day were lovely and topped by seeing a kingfisher land on a piling as we re-crossed the ford near to base.

He does walk on water!
