The Afon Castell from the foot bridge at the start of the walk.

Abandoned lead mine on a frosty morning.

Dyffryn Castell hotel, dwarfed by Bryn Glas, the southern spur of Plynlimon.


Sawtooth mushrooms. The cogs are actually ice crystals!

Plynlimon peers over Bryn Glas as the sun enters the valley of Nant Meirch.

Pen Dihewyd from the grassy top of Fuches Wen.


The bwlch at the top of the Nant Helygen valley.

Cefn Croes power station. There are about 40 massive turbines. They're still 3km away!

The hillscape of north Ceredigion.


Re-forestation by the side of the Nant y Creuau.

Wild boggy moorland near the three Llynoed Ieuan:

The middle one of the three lakes...


...the small, eastern one...

...and the big one at the western end of the plateau.

This page shows my own views down the hillsides of Wales, not those of my employer. Does anyone really think the College is paying me to go walking?!?
