Overview

A figure of eight walk in a scenic area where, if you choose, you could join us at the car park around 12:45 p.m. for the second half.

(Let me know if you intend to meet us for the second half of the walk). 

The afternoon walk may start a little later if the morning overruns.

____________________________

The first section of this walk is about 2.5 miles and will circle around the edge of the Golf course. 

Reaching the viewpoint over Three Cliffs Bay, we’ll follow the coast path to Pennard Castle.  

From there we will pass the landmark water tower on our way across the common and back to the start.

____________________________

Our lunch stop will be at the recently created community garden adjacent to the cars (but given the ongoing forecast of showers, we could have lunch in our cars).
