Mitchell's Fold Stone Circle
Historical landmark
👍👍 Stunning scenery, incredible views, plenty of wildlife and a relatively unknown Bronze Age stone circle with the majority of stones intact - what's not to love?
If you visit on a very clear day you can see all the way to Snowdonia! I also spotted red kites - they seemed to be nesting high up and hu...

Roundton Hill National Nature Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 A two hr walk. Two hill tops to climb. Not difficult but not easy. A few areas or marsh land so good wellies or boots are needed. Really large car park to start and well marked out. A few of the walking post are hiding or missin so you do need to pay attention. Lots of sheep trails that may confuse...

Pwll Penarth Nature Reserve
Nature preserve

At the end? We obviously did some thing wrong but enjoyed the walk along the cannal.

👍 Llyn Coed Y Dinas is a small nature reserve nestled between the bypass and old road to Welshpool. There is a large, well kept bird hide overlooking the man made lake. There is also a large meadow area, with perimeter walk, seating area and "dipping pond".
The hide is decorated with informative mural...
