Shake off those Xmas Excesses with a walk to the top of Twmbarlwm with a group led by enthusiastic rambler and CTS Member, Maggie Thomas.

The route is picturesque and classed as moderate – through Medart Woods and along the Forest Road – it is just under 6 miles and should take no more than 4 hours.

There will be a hot toddy and mince pies waiting at the top – but bring your own packed lunch and drink if needed.

Remember to wear stout walking shoes and appropriate clothing for the landscape and weather.

OR Litter Pick

As you probably know – the last Sunday of the month is usually our workday/litterpick but it was suggested we do the walk – but for anybody who doesn’t fancy the walk, there will be a couple of members at the car park to organise a litter pick as usual. It’s hoped that the litter pickers will meet up with the walkers to share a hot toddy and a mince pie or two.

Everybody is welcome – the tump is just the place to be to clear head after all the Christmas festivities


EQUIPMENT

We have plenty of rubbish bags, gloves, hi-viz vests, pick-up sticks and most other tools and equipment that will be needed but you are welcome to provide you own.

Please remember to dress appropriately for the terrain and weather. We are properly insured but you will be expected to be aware of your own safety and act responsibly


HOW TO GET THERE
