Overview

This is a lovely gentle , varied walk, timed to enjoy the wildflowers at their best , and they are looking wonderful this year.

We will go up through the community run wildflower meadow, walking generally north past City and up to Ruthin. From there we head for St.Mary Hill (good views) and circle back to Craig Penllyn.

For of a more energetic disposition the walk to the pub from the car park and back will add an extra quarter of a mile.

I hope you can join us.
