Live blog today and you can see where we are walking from Machynlleth to Tre Taliesin

We arrived in Machynlleth after Rhian being tailgated by an angry man and Helen has a surreal conversation with her lovely MIL about this blog. Photo of the clock in the centre of town. Public loos are shut!


Astonishing beauty


lots of astonishing beauty. Lots and lots of hills to climb up and down often though wonderful woodland.

We have now climbed up the mountain above Furnace and we can see the Dyfi estuary ahead of us. With Ynys Las on the left where we walked earlier this holiday. To the right is Aberdyfi. And we have walked that mountain as far as Machynlleth. We have around 3.5 miles left to walk today. Tired but it’s worth every step. Rhian has only threatened to lamp me with my water bottle once which is quite good, I think.


and we are done. Knackered but excited at closing The gap from last year


STOP PRESS


as we were driving back to the car, the cows, thwarted in their attempts to scare Rhian on the walk, charged up the road to terrify her one last time, it was most amusing,

The cows want their milk back. Well done both! The walk looked breath-taking in both senses of the phrase 🐮

About us

Rhian and Helen are two middle aged women who have known each other since the Mid Cambrian Period. They spend their holidays walking the Welsh Coastal Path and amazingly they are still on speaking terms
