They're always fine, even in the middle of winter.

Was fantasic there sat, as mentioned you'll get splashes of mud, worse to come with the rain. The trails though are weather proof & some trail maintenance has been done, so really it's fine come what may.

Did Penhydd on Sunday for the last time before the felling starts next month. A few puddles where there's no drainage, but generally fine. The wettest I got was the stream crossing, but I missed out the Brashy Track section as I was short of time.

Farewell, old friend...

believe it's open this weekend - does it close around the 7-11th I believe. I hope so as I'm up there this weekend and never done penhydd, and would love to before it shuts.
