Day Three on the The Cambrian Way mountain trail 479 km (298 miles) with a total ascent of 22,460 m (73,700 ft). I think it could be Britain's hardest long distance trail. Its hard to say but looking at the map i think i started todays episode around the Mynydd Garnclochdy area i want give exact camping locations away. I was so wet from the rain all night i set about getting ready to walk around 4am just to keep warm. I was no risk at cold from the time of Year and in good health. So walked back up towards Mynydd Garnclochdy i think. The rain came back on top the hill. The rain was very bad so much so i could only see about couple of meters ahead what with the mist as well as the dark even with two powerful lights. By this time my cannon camera was destroyed by the weather i should know by now and my phone was useless take note people think phone navigation fine lucky i know this i used my garmin fenix3 gps watch with the track loaded onto so i knew i was heading in the general dir

The star of Avebury Summer solstice 2019 Sunrise Sunset & Wansdyke
How to get to Avebury by public transport. You can get a coach or train to Avebury from there get the 49 stagecoach bus to Avebury. The bus runs 7 days a week. The National trust put on a campsite over the summer soltice with room for a 100 small tents. That gets full quick. Normally opens up at 9am first come first served. However there loads of places around the area its possible to camp it is not a crime to camp on land most the time so long as you course no damage what so ever and tidy up after your after you leave and while there. Always check on rules and laws and not just that respect the land and owner which might have good reason for you not camp on the land. I stopped on the campsite for 2 nights had a great time met some great people. Good laugh to. The Red Lion good pub to have a few in there is some times live music from random people. The village shop is normally well stocked. There is a museum there free if your a national trust member. I think its closed over the solstice. The national trust toilets are better than the campsite ones. There is a drinking water tap by them to. Feeling bit worse for wear after the 2 days and not wanting face public transport on a Saturday i decided to camp up on Wansdyke a ancient defensive earth works much like Offas dyke. I think even more amazing than Avebury and not many visit it very nice place to chill out after Avebury Soltice and the views are incredible. Where as up on the Ridgeway will be busy and maybe a rave going on. Back in the day i would loved that but now i prefer the peace of Wansdyke.
