2/4 Really pleasant walk from Stobo, along the JBW to pick up path directly up Penvalla, down and up to Ladyurd Hill and similar descent and up to Riding Hill. Then a smashing forestry section out of the heat, to find the little pretty top of Penveny - if only all forest tops were this rewarding. Saw a lot of deer in here. Nice estate land. 3.5 hours.nickywood105/09/2023
