Elder bush with backdrop We liked this Elder bush growing from a log.  Life will always find a way.  The backdrop is spectacular, with Aran Fawddwy in the far distance.

Nant flowing off the hills above Foel This stream accompanies the path down the hillside before shortly turning right to flow into the Afon Twrch, which itself shortly meets the Afon Banwy at Foel. The Banwy then flows on to meet the Vyrnwy just before Meifod.
