A magic place.

I was lucky enough to fish there a couple of times in the early 80's. I understand that on the mount Gower and Lidgberg(sp?) walks a guide is compulsory now.

A brilliant place.
And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended,
And at night the wondrous glory of the everlasting stars.
