The Tarrens : Corris to Aberdoevy

Last weekend, prompted by my good lady sister in law's wish to visit the Craft centre in Corris and the small peoples wish to ride on a donkey, a plan was hatched for them to do as they wished and me to get a lift to run the line of hills from Corris to Aberdovey which I had admired many times from the south.

While I did not quite run the whole length as planned (my taxi service ran out of patience), we did get as far as Happy Valley, but it is a cracking run, about 14 miles. The line was

1st 1/2 was either very rough, either bog, heather, rough forest or very steep grass which her ladyship is perfectly suited to. 2nd half was fast and very enjoyable running, but Mist was a bit tired over the last section. We saw no one all afternoon, except the same can't be said of the top of Snowdon.

See, no people
In short, lots more to explore up in this range, some great running and some of the best views in Wales.
