Road Trip - Kezzieboy - 23-11-2012
So, I'm pretty sick of only driving around Birmingham, and miss the countryside so I fancy going on a decent drive, followed by a nice walk.
So, suggestions, I guess the most convenient/closest I've found so far is the peak district, including Snake Pass, and going for a walk up Kinder Scout or something.
Any other suggestions? The closer the better, but I'm happy to drive for a couple hours each way. I've thought about Wales (either Snowdonia or the Black Mountains), or going for the trek up to the Dales or Lakes.
I reckon I'll do it in a day, but if it's worth the trek I might try and find somewhere to stay.
Cheers 'en

If you head for Wales going through Shrewsbury there is plenty of nice places around there. But I would go for lake vrnway. Couple hours drive from Birmingham and its lovely. Then after you can drive through the snowdonia national park. It's very nice! I live in Shrewsbury so can recommend places around there too!
But lake vrnway is awesome. Beauitful place. If you do go there's an amazing viewpoint kind of hidden away I can tell you about
