This is the second in our email newsletters for this year. We hope that you are all coping with the uncertainty that 2009 has become. When you are planning your holiday or short breaks for this year please remember that we are still here at The Courthouse(Henllys). Bookings are going well so please try to book at least 3 weeks ahead. The newsletter has a few ideas of what Snowdonia has to offer be it activity based or relaxing days. For those who appreciate gardens - Bodnant is looking particularly spectacular at the moment.

Its back, the event of the year 2008, the Oggie 8 is back with a vengeance.

Course of the Month - Beginners Navigation

Do you want to explore more, perhaps venture off the beaten track or just have more confidence when out walking?

Then get started with our 2 day course based in Snowdonia.

We assume you have no prior navigation knowledge and so start with the basics.

You'll spend two days in the hills learning and practicing a variety of skills, including; reading the map, map orientation and interpretation, compass use, navigation techniques, following a bearing, route setting,navigation strategies and more.

This will give you the knowledge and confidence to navigate your own ventures into the hills. We spend both days outside.

Crossing the Glyder Range

As many will have picked up, I do enjoy the idea of crossing a range of mountains without having to return to the start point. One of the best mountain days in Wales is the crossing of the Glyder Range. Start above Deiniolen, at the bottom of the Marchlyn Mawr access road (sorry, gated and locked!) – map ref. 594631. Follow the unused road up to the dam at Marchlyn Mawr. Head up the right hand (western) side of the lake, following rocky slopes directly to the summit of Elidir Fawr (90

Bwa Wen - the White Arch

This limestone sea arch is to be found near Rhoscolyn on Anglesey. It is not as well known as it should be, partly because it is easily possible to walk right past it without seeing it! Known locally as Bwa Wen (shown on the OS map as Bwa Gwyn), the White Arch is located at map ref. 259762. You do have to walk to the edge of the cliffs and look over to see the arch. For the confident, it is possible to scramble down to the viewpoint I have taken this
