August 31, 2021, Ramble on the River Teifi

Strolling on the river. Following the Teifi gorge walk (challenging in parts) to Cilgerran - beautifully shady and some likely looking swim spots.

August 24, 2021, Cilgerran loop from the Wildlife Centre24.08.2021 15:59

This is a lovely area for a walk. But note, the section adjacent to the river Teifi is up, precipitous in places, and down and slow going! Better visited by canoe!
