25th May - Llangollen
The A walk, led by Jim, is a circular from Llangollen, about half of which follows Offa's Dyke Path. It starts with the climb up to Castell Dinas Bran then on to Offa's Dyke Path along the Panorama Walk, descending to the Pontcysyllte aqueduct. Offa's Dyke Path continues SE along the canal towpath to Pentre then turns SW where we leave it after 2 miles heading NW uphill on the LLwybr Ceiriog Trail over Craig-y-dduallt and back to Llangollen.

It's then the reverse of the A route W on Offa's Dyke Path along the Panorama Walk and on to Castell Dinas Bryn and Llangollen.
