2018 Events

New Year Celebrations

Join us for fireworks and a tipple to see the New Year in.

Sarn Sabrina Walk

Based on the Celtic myth of Sabrina, a water nymph said to inhabit the waters of the River Severn, we have created a 25 mile circular route called the Sarn Sabrina and a shorter 12 mile route called the Semi-Sabrina.

The Sarn Sabrina Walk is both a one day challenge walking event which held its inaugural walk in 2006, and a trail that can be walked over a number of days for you to savour the beautiful views the route encompasses.

A slightly less challenging route is the shorter 12 mile walk from Llanidloes taking in Glyndwr’s Way and the Llyn Clywedog, known as the Semi-Sabrina.
