We are the Southwold (Yate) Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A delightful walk through the Forest of Dean taking in Parkend and the Cannop Ponds. We start near the Coleford Ironworks taking the old railway path to Parkend which is the end of the Dean Forest steam railway where we have a break at the station. Afterwards we head north again on the old railway path to the Cannop Ponds where we will have lunch. We continue through the Barnhill Plantation and onto the town of Coleford. We then again take the railway path back to the car park.
Parking is at the Darkhill free car park. Follow the B4228 from Chepstow and turn right at Sling continue on this road for about 2 miles until a crossroads keep straight on for about half a mile . Car park is on the left. Please meet up at 10.00 for a 10.15 start. Bring food and drinks for our breaks. My mobile number is 07804 296688. Alan.
