A Nordic walk by my standard route to the summit, from the lay-by on the lane to Belch Penbarra. Ascent by paths to the summit through Coed Moel Fama. Descent by the Offa's Dyke path to Bwlch Penbarra, then the path next to the road. Late morning hike, before the rain arrived.
Hill-fog above 400m, which cleared while I was on the summit as the south-east wind increased in strength, and began gusting.
