8 The Cambrian Sarn Sabrina Walk Llanidloes Saturday May 25th 2013 Based around the Cel c myth of Sabrina, a water nymph said to inhabit the waters of the River Severn, we have created a 25 mile circular route called the Sarn Sabrina and a shorter 12 mile route called the Semi-Sabrina. The Sarn Sabrina is a circular walk that leads out of Llanidloes following the na onal trail of Glyndwr's Way. The path opens up extensive views of Llyn Clywedog and the Hafren Forest, and climbs up the slopes of Pen Pumlumon to visit the source of the Severn at 620m above sea level. Semi-Sabrina is a shorter version of the walk. At approx. 12 miles, it s an ideal alterna ve for those less able or inclined to undertake the full Sarn Sabrina Walk! Taking Part: The Entry Fee for the Sarn Sabrina and Semi-Sabrina Walks is 12.50, payable in advance. The fee includes a meal, a cer ficate and a goody bag upon successful comple on of the walk. The fee reduces to for under 18's and over 60's. N.B. Par cipants under 18 must be under the supervision of an adult at all mes. Staggered Start Times Sarn Sabrina: 7.00am-8.30am Maximum walking me allowed, 11hrs. Semi-Sabrina: 9.00am-10.30am Maximum walking me, 8hrs. Par cipants are responsible for ensuring that they are fit enough to complete their chosen walk within the me allowed. The entry form is available by following the Sarn Sabrina link on 8
