Wales Link Path loop

I've been looking at the Link Path signs for a while now. Launched in 2017, it links the Welsh coast path at Saltney with Offa's Dyke at Llandegla. As such, it goes through many fields near home. A frosty day seemed essential, so it was that Jez and I set off in the early morning for Honkley. The fields were indeed frozen solid, and it felt like running across tundra (I imagine) all day. The plan was to follow the link path religiously (it weaves round a lot in its attempt to avoid tarmac). Much of it was familiar, but some surprisingly was not. From Caer Estyn, it heads up towards Bryn Yorkin high above Hope and then joins familiar paths through the woods to Ffrith and beyond. The terrain higher up is excellent, with view over Cyrn y Brain and a real upland feel. We doubled back at this point, heading for home on small lanes through Llanfynydd, over Waun y Llyn, and home via the lake: 32k/850m or so.
