I am heading off to Snowdonia this week (staying at Pen-Y-Pass) and was looking for any suggestions for a couple of good, day walks in the area……anything considered as it isn’t an area I know well. I’ve have done Snowdon via the Miner’s previously…….Thanks in advance!

12.6.13Walking with; Nobody The agricultural fields of Cheshire have not always been happy walking grounds over the years https://www.comewalkwithmeuk.co.uk/2012/03/mud-mud-not-so-glorious-mud-round.html or https://www.comewalkwithmeuk.co.uk/2012/04/cloud-and-dane-valley.html but they are convenient and require little in the way of preparation a day in the hills needs. So it was I found myself parking in amongst the palatial mansions and expensive cars of the residents
8.6.13Walking with; Nobody The Lake District in sunshine is one of those rare, almost mythical events, like finding a teetotal prop forward or a South African vegetarian…….However days like yesterday are the ones that remind you that the English Lakes are on par with anywhere in the world. I’d initially planned for my visit to
30.5.13Walking with; Nobody Another one of England’s big boys under my belt, but Skiddaw is doing it’s level best not to enthuse me. A couple of years ago I tried the ascent from Dodd, the cloud came down, my confidence evaporated and I gave up making a vertiginous descent down a gully off Longside Edge.
21/23.5.13Walking with; Nobody I love having the Peak District on my doorstep, it means when time is short or inclination is in lowish supply I can still get out and experience some of the finest countryside Britain has to offer without it really feeling like an effort….and so it was last week, two very different
13-15.5.13Walking with; Nobody Off to the Lakes again for comprehensive proof that in spite of last week’s Bank Holiday sunshine in Wales, Britain seems reluctant to shake off Winter just yet.

23.4.13Walking with; Nobody After the trials and tribulations of a windswept Lake District last week it felt good to be back on familiar ground and to, maybe, just maybe, see Spring finally beginning to stir. Kinder is my “go to” hill, close enough to have a long day out and sleep in my own bed,
15/16/17.4.13Walking with; Nobody Illness had followed injury and I was itching to get out again and try the knee on something other than the grey, rain slick pavements of South Manchester. In my excitement I decided to dig out the tent and make it the first night under “canvas” of the year……..hmmmmm, perhaps a more
