Overview

From the Powys Castle car park we will follow lanes and fields down to the Montgomery canal, and on into Welshpool, offering beautiful views of the castle and long mountain. 

We then head back through the deer park to the start.  

For those that would like to join me for an optional extension, we will continue through the wooded area of the castle grounds (National Trust card required), adding about another mile, and have a picnic lunch

Toilets and cafe at castle.
