Meeting at Riverbanc Cafe, we will walk along the backroads up to the hill past Plas Newydd, over towards Pengwern and along the local “flat” road loop the locals call “The Valley”. Once we have nearly passed the farmland, there’s steep trail to the right called Three Trees. It’s a long trail up and has uneven terrain so trail shoes or walking boots are recommended.

The trail splits left and right, and we will follow it left where it tends to flatten out in places. Once at the top, you can see all across to Cheshire and Shropshire, we will walk along the top road past the two masts to the top of Green lane, a lovely trail which we will descend. Green Lane has stunning views of the valley and Pen Y Coed woods.

 We will rejoin the route out at the split in the road, and descend back to the valley, where we will make our return through town to Riverbanc where I’ll be grabbing a coffee and cake and you’re welcome to join me.
