Many waterfalls

[heleninwales]

I'm putting the photos from the walk down the valley in a separate post because there are a lot of them.

After entering the woods, the path descends quite steeply, cut into the valley side some way above the river.

We did this walk nearly two years ago in October 2022. Though it's summer now, there was about the same amount of water going over the falls as back then. One of the few advantages of a wettish summer is that waterfalls look more spectacular.



Everything was very green. The river looks quite tame now, but when it's in flood it can move big tree trunks like the one in this photo.




The path was a bit precarious in places. This is the path to the viewpoint where you can see the biggest waterfall.



And here it is looking splendid.





Further down there are rapids.



And then shortly below this section, you reach the main road and the church by the narrow stone bridge.

I just love that bottom one especially. Oh, the green, the WATER! In this parched heat, with the hottest months of summer still ahead, I do love looking at those.

Tomorrow is going to be hot, but we had rain this morning. That's pretty much normal for a Welsh summer, which is why everything stays so green. Some of our local woodland qualifies as Celtic Rainforest.

Such beautiful pictures. I adore waterfall and woodland shots. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. I always go out thinking I won't take many photos, but there are so many lovely views that I can't resist.

I can understand that. You live in a beautiful area.
