Wales and Western England

[wardsgirl]

I just got back from spending two weeks in the United Kingdom. Besides the many touristy things I did in London, I also took several dayhikes in this beautiful land of various terrain. It was a wonderful time. Thanks to those of you here who offered advice on hiking in this part of the world. Here are some pictures from my trip.

Speech House Lake in the Forest of Dean

Puzzlewood, where JRR Tolkien imagined his hobbits

Tame rolling hills in Wales

Brecon Beacons National Park- where sheep are as prevalant as black flies are in the Whites

This stone wall pens in the sheep... somewhat

Hiking path along Dunraven Bay, southern Wales

Glastonbury Tor, where civilized trail maintainers have installed these steps

Great pics! Did you get to Snowdonia at all?

Nearly! That was a bit farther north. Maybe next time!
