The Programme
This camp was an amazing week for the Junior Rangers where they shared and learned from one another, and had plenty of fun! The Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape is managed by a team from the local council and they shared their special places with the camp participants, from Caer Drewyn, and Iron-Age hillfort, to the UNESCO World Heritage Site which includes the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, the highest usable canal aqueduct.
