GW/MW-010 - Gwaunceste Hill, 542m, 2 points

John M0JDK, Steve M0KPO decided to activate the Gwaunceste Hill on the 16th February 2008. The views on the way up are quite good and at the summit we were in mist. Starting at a farm, with a whole host of dogs to contend with, all chained up on our visit, the walk to the summit is on a stone road. You could, if you sort permission, drive to the summit in a good 4x4.

3.34 Miles total walk - Start SO 14908 57313

We made it


Roll on summer, the wind was not much but at -3.3C and
having a wind chill or -10.7C you soon get cold
