If an urban hike takes a while and has lots of diversions then this is certainly a good example. A walk along the defensive line between four of Cardiff’s lesser-known forts and castles. Expect mounds and evocative spaces, canals and lost railways, suburban streetscapes and industrial relics, easy pavement strolls and muddy struggles through woods. Morganstown to the top of Caerphilly Mountain via Whitchurch and Rhiwbina with plenty of drop out spots for those who prefer the shorter trail.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
