Pen y Fan is the highest mountain in Southern Britain! Our small group 'Secret Pen y Fan' is a glorious walk taking in tracks less travelled with exciting climbs and descents to summits and a fine lake. This walk is 11km and has 600m of ascent...
Following the Taff up to it's source, a route we'll have to ourselves, some may get wet feet so good boots are a must. Then it's the steep climb to Corn Du and onto Pen y Fan, taking in the views, seeking out the fossil beach, and getting some fine Instagram worthy snaps. It's then off piste once again and we'll have the mountain to ourselves as we hilariously slide down steep slopes on our backsides. This is a truly hysterical experience! We'll explore Llyn Cwm Llwch and discuss its mysteries before heading up to the sad memorial of Tommy Jones where Andy will relay the true facts of this case. A final mountain, Yr Gyrn, is peak bagged as we descend to the start point.
