Bungal Forest. A lovely walk through open forest passing disused mine sites, gravel pit and with views over adjacent farmland. Off track walking to the top of some knolls and across country . Hopefully walk into the forest via the southern access track. This will depend on how flooded the southern access track and ford is. Alternative is to take the northern access track. Good practice for map and compass work. This is the walk cancelled from last November due to extreme heat. |
