THE next walk is scheduled for 16 September and has been organised by Jac, Lynda and Dewi (01974 298109).

The walk is entitled The Legend of Rhita Gawr/Snowdon. According to legend, Rhita Gawr was the biggest giant in Wales. He was sponsored by Gillette and roamed Wales, warring with as many as he could, then taking men’s beards as trophies.

Join a walk up the Watkin Path, named after Sir Edward Watkin MP who retired to a chalet at the foot of Snowdon.

The walk starts from outside Y Talbot at 7am and will last approximately six to seven hours. It is graded a hard walk, covering eight miles with an ascent of 1,000m.
