One of the views from Waun y Llyn Country Park. 
At the toposcope at Waun y Llyn.
And you asked when can we stop for lunch! Happy times at Caergwrle Castle.Walk stats: Distance: 10.7 miles; Climb:2184'.
Time:5 hours 38 minutes; Walking average: 2.4 m.p.h.; Overall walk average: 1.9 m.p.h.
Group: Martyn, Richard and Dave J.
A very select group set off towards the toposcope on a bright and somewhat cool, but for a few spots of rain a dry day. This was a very varied walk, particularly the second half with its visit to Caergwrle Castle, well worth a visit for any one's money, and it's free! The views from many of the "ridge tops" and high points were excellent, particularly across the Cheshire towards Beeston Castle.
Another walk well worth revisiting, but only when we have a had a prolonged dry spell! Some section would be particularly difficult if it was wet underfoot.
Birds seen or heard today included: Robin, Blue tit, Great tit, Long-tailed tit, Mallard, Common gull, Jay, Magpie, Jackdaw, Carrion crow, Raven, Stonechat, Greenfinch, Woodpidgeon, Great spotted woodpecker, House sparrow, Dunnock, Nuthatch, Wren and Buzzard.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at the New Inn, where Cottage Old Pawfather was the the only guest beer on offer today. Not as light as we like after a walk, but still went down well as they usuallyu do!.
