Walk West – Walks With Olly

Portskewett, South Wales

Sunday 4th September 2022

A walk from the Walk West series of e-books and one that would take place seven days ahead of my first trip north to the Lake District.

Somerset Levels: Creech St. Michael

Sunday 13th March 2022

This would be my final walk before my trip to Snowdonia – which I look forward to start writing about soon. There would be no mountains on this outing, as I drove down to the Somerset Levels, just outside of Taunton. Another route taken from the Walk West series of eBooks.

Brockweir and St. Briavels

Sunday 6th March 2022

I’ve walked around the Wye Valley on only a few occasions. Each time, it had been under the leadership of another person and, more often than note, we’d explore Tintern and climb up to the Devil’s Pulpit.

This walk would avoid all of that, starting just north in Brockweir. Another route from the Walk West series of eBooks and one that was brand-new to me.

Mynydd Machen

Saturday 12th February 2022

On a rare Saturday off work, I drove across to South Wales. But not towards the Brecon Beacons for any forest I might’ve explored before. I was heading out for another route from the Walk West series. To the west of Newport and just outside of Caerphilly, I parked up in the village of Machen.
