Erddig parkrun (National Trust), Wales. Attempt to Run the Full Ponty but Pont y Bala was Cancelled. @NicolaRuns

Uploaded January 2023 | Updated September 2026, 11 hours ago

We set out to Wales to complete the Full Ponty challenge (Pontypool, Pontypridd, Pontefract and Pont y Bala). The weather had other ideas and in the end over 400 UK parkruns were cancelled due to ice. We were so lucky to find a parkrun that was on and we were super lucky that it was the beautiful Erddig parkrun.

National Trust parkruns are always beautiful but Erddig parkrun was stunning. If tourists miss this parkrun to head over to Pont y Bala then they're missing a treat!

If you're in the area then the Grade I listed Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, World Heritage Site is a must visit. I was so happy to visit this incredible Wonder of the Waterways.

Happy running and stay safe,

Nicola :)
