Saturday 6th June

08:00 – 15:00

On Saturday the 6th of June, we’ll be holding our annual open day at Bwlch Corog, the land we care for near Machynlleth.

There will be chances to see different parts of the land, chat with staff about all the different aspects of our work at Bwlch Corog, hopefully meet our beautiful Carneddau ponies and the Highland and Welsh White cattle, along with cake around the fire and nature-based activities for children.

We’ll also be treated to a performance from brilliant local musician and cultural historian Cynefin, and after the popularity of las year’s storytelling, the wonderful Milly Jackdaw will be back with myths and legends of horses.

See the image above for the day’s schedule.

Please email us at post@coetiranian.org to register for the 8am birdsong walk, but there’s no need to register for any of the rest of the day. Diolch – thank you!

Children’s activities will be active, outdoor and nature-themed, and will be available throughout the day.

There will be volunteering taster sessions during the morning and afternoon for anyone who wants to try out some conservation volunteering.

Please wear suitable footwear for walking on rough ground, and dress appropriately for the weather (it can be a few degrees colder up at Bwlch Corog than down in the valley, so bring a spare layer!). Long trousers and sleeves are strongly recommended, as we’re well into tick season now.

Free hot drinks and cake will be available (including vegan and gluten-free options), but please bring your own lunch if you intend to stay all day.

If you have any questions, please email us at post@coetiranian.org, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

Come along if you can, for the whole day or part of it!

Saturday 4th July

On Saturday the 4th of July we invite anyone interested in nature, wildlife, ecology, or anything in between to join us at Bwlch Corog for a day of sharing knowledge. We’ll visit different parts of the site, led by staff and local ecologists, recording the wildlife we find as we go and learning from each other’s specialisms and interests.

Details and times will be publicised soon, here and on our social media.

Twice each month

Our volunteer days are a great way to spend some time outdoors and do some satisfying work in a beautiful place! Go to our Volunteering page for all the details.

More events will appear here as soon as they’re booked in. We’ll post them on our social media too or you can join our email list below if you’d like to be kept up to date. Take a look at our social media or YouTube channel or our most recent newsletter to see what sort of things we get up to.

Volunteering is a great way to see Bwlch Corog, and to chat to our staff and find out what we’re all about.

And you can always visit Bwlch Corog in your own time!
