On this stunning walk along the Anglesey coast, Derek discovers that the only way to get to church is at low tide. He finds out all about the mythical stories surrounding the Mabinogi. He surprises the community with this week’s Weatherman Walking Local Hero Award, and on Porth Tyn Tywyn, he relaxes by taking a sauna.

Derek walks the last few miles of the Taff Trail into Cardiff and takes in the stunning beauty of Castell Coch, where things get a little spooky. He joins in with a practice session kicking a rugby ball, Australian-style. He finishes things off in Bute Park joining an enthusiastic bunch of runners on a 5km run.

On this walk Derek gets lost in a maze, quenches his thirst at a picturesque tea room in Llanrwst and cools things down by trying his hand at wild water swimming. He even meets an Arch Druid who gives us the low down on stone circles and the Eisteddfod Festival.

Derek takes to the picturesque canal path starting at Talybont all the way to Brecon and enjoys a boat trip where he tries, at first hand to navigate a canal pleasure boat before he encounters Harry a wood turner who turns ‘dead’ wood into something useful and attractive. This week he heads to the scouts to surprise a volunteer with the ‘Weatherman Walking Local Hero Award’.

This circular walk takes Derek on a journey around the town of Llandrindod Wells where he gets to taste spring water with medicinal qualities and tries his hand at lawn bowls. He ventures out of town to clear a bog to help the local wildlife and returns to present ‘The Weatherman Walking Local Hero Award’ to a well-deserved First Responder.

Derek takes a creative twist on this walk by joining in with a re-enactment of the Rebecca Riots and takes part in a walk celebrating the work of the famous poet Waldo Williams. He surprises a local resident with the ‘Weatherman Walking Local Hero Award’ and then heads to the top of the Preseli Hills to visit a crash site of a WW2 aircraft before celebrating the opening of a local community pub.

Battling the elements Derek heads to the stunning Black Mountains crossing the River Twrch via the picturesque old Twrch aqueduct and and drops in on a local knitting group in Ystradgynlais. He takes a trip down memory lane and visits some relics of the past before ending the walk at the top of the Black Mountains.
