Synopsis
Four walkers from across Wales give guided walks around their area.
Over the course of the walk, the host is expected to include the local history, show off the scenery, and make for an interesting walk. They're also to provide some sort of lunch, and lay on entertainment.
The other walkers will judge the walk on these qualities, and award marks out of ten, in a Come Dine with Me style. Highest score after everyone's led the walk is the winner of the week, and takes the £1000 prize.
If you go down to the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise.It's an enjoyable way to pass an hour, shows off bits of Wales we might not consider and other parts that might be close to home. Details of the walks are on the S4C website.
