A hot and sunny day and the not quite a mountain peak of Moel Famau (Bare Mother Mountain) beckoned us for a long walk, a total of 5 miles and 1000ft of ascent in this area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Topped by the remains of the Jubilee Tower and stunning views in every direction - with the peaks of Snowdon, Tryfan and Cader Idris, up to 35 miles away, visible in clear weather! Looking in other directions, the Peak District, Liverpool, the Wirral, Ellesmere Port and Beeston and Peckforton Hills are all easily visible.
Adjacent are several Hill Forts, each of which deserves a visit in its own right, but not on this day, after the walk up, we were ready for a long drink, a picnic and a sit down..
