Harris Hikers Dates and Proposed Social Distance Walks March 2021

Withiin Wales we are now allowed to travel anywhere, but meeting outdoors is limited to two households (upto 6 people) or two individual.

Wednesday 31st March 2021.
Moel Famau, Moel Dywyll and Moel Llys-y-coed.
Distance: 8.0 miles. Climb: 1700'.
Start: Car park area West of Cilcain. Grid ref: SJ170652.
Leave Chester at 09-00 a.m.
To get to the parking area, at the crossroads in Cilcain turn right (Westward), past the White Horse, Church and Village hall, at the end of a few houses on the right turn, left and the parking area is a few hundred yards further on on the right. 
This walk includes three hills along Offa's Dyke Footpath - Moel Famau, Moel Dywyll and Moel Llys-y-coed. The latter hill is not one of my favourite hills in the Clwydian range. It is the ascent from North to South that I dislike so much, the fact that we will be descending from South to North shouldn't be quite so bad!
Please let me know as soon as you can if you intend to walk.
I will then add your name of those planning to walk to this post.

To date those planning to walk are: Martyn and Ed.
We will all need to drive independently and keep to the 2m social distancing on the walk.
