Today was a glorious early winter day: bright blue skies; chilly enough to wrap up in winter woollies, hat, scarf and gloves; crisp underfoot. So, duly rugged up, I headed down to the riverside. I walked part of the Taff Trail north from Blackweir, crossed the river at the next bridge and continued on along the riverside trail to Llandaff, then completed the circuit back to Blackweir on the western side of the river. I hope you can see from my photos why I think it has been the most perfect day!

Lovely images. Do you see salmon leaping at the weir?

Thanks! In theory, you should be able to see the salmon at Blackweir, at the Llandaff Weir and at Radyr, Joyce, but I’ve only seen them once so far and that was at Radyr. No photos though.

Gorgeous photos! It looks like such a beautiful part of the world, and it most certainly looks like a sunny winters day.

Thanks so much, Laura. It’s certainly one of my favourite local walks. And it’s that time of the year when the sun is low and often golden, creating some lovely scenes.
