Exploring the UK one hike at a time
Pen Y Fan via Pont ar Daf Car Park | Brecon Beacons | Hiking
I know it's a Mountain and not a hill, but Pen Y Fan from the Pont ar Daf Car Park was giving me Mam Tor vibes! (there is limited free car parking further along the A470 in the Storey Arms car park)
Pont ar Daf Car Park postocde - LD3 8NL (£7.50 to park all day unless you are a National Trust member in which case it's free).
It's a very beautiful, straightforward route to the top.
There is a nice path that makes the walk easy enough, although you will still work up a sweat as it's steep in places.
There are other routes up Pen Y Fan that are a bit quieter, @adamradford2285 has a good video for that. ua-cam.com/video/17JLrVX2VrM/v-deo.htmlsi=yx2Kmpyw8J-Svvn-
@jamieharding5 Also has some good videos for alternative mountains nearby that are quieter.
As always, thank you for watching. If you enjoyed the video, please give it a like & subscribe to follow us on our next hike.

Join me on a recent circular hike up Moel Siabod. I got to the top just before sunset, wild camped and left at sunrise. The weather was poor, sunrise looked dissapointing at first, but after descending a little way down the mountain, I was gifted with some AMAZING sunrise views!

Buttermere - 3 Wainwrights - STUNNING walk!

Parking for this route - Gatesgarth Farm Parking - CA13 9XA £4 per day. This was a stunning route, taking in Scale Force, Red Pike, High Stil and High Crag. The route down was a bit slippy when the temperatures dropped so I would definitely recommend using an alternative way down if the conditions aren't perfect.

Nice view ❤🎉
I've definitely had worse ones in my time lol
Incredible walk!!! Beautiful!
It's such a beautiful place. I love walking there! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I'll be sure to head over and check out some of your adventures this afternoon! :)
Hello mate. As always brilliant video. You walk and talk well👌 It's a busy place😁 Great seeing you this way. Very nicely filmed. Good music on the vid. Good bag. Good humour. I must try Mam Tor soon. Looking forward to your next one😉👍
Cheers mate, Hope you are well? I have only done Mam Tor up the side, I didn't even realise there was a nice easy route up it until the 2nd time I did it lol. Not sure where I am going next...hopefully the lakes this month to bag a few more Wainwrights with the Mrs!
Oh what a shame
Wasn't the first time and definitely won't be the last time lol
🤣🤣
Fantastic video and music my friend 👌😍. It’s my pleasure to sub your channel my friend 😊🙌
Thank you for taking the time to watch and for your kind words. I appreciate the sub 🙌🏼
👍
Is absolutely beautiful there 🤩 looks like you have fantastic hikes guys 👍. Really love it Pen Y Fan, popular but beautiful view on the top. 👍
Thank you for taking the time to watch it! It really is stunning up there! I need to try and get up for a mid week sunrise or sunset!
Lovely vid, would love to do an easy one like this (I'm old) when I come over.
Don't worry, there's a few easy ones in the lake district when we go up!
Hi guys, cracking video as always. I’m like you hoards of people in the mountains does my head in. I go for the solitude. If you want to do Snowdon go during the months when the train isn’t running. It’s that that brings the masses up there. 🤣 I’m hoping to get back in to the lakes during next week. All the best guys, have a great weekend. 😀🥾⛰
Hi Dave, I hope you are well mate? What walks are you hoping to do when you get back up to the lakes? (nice and quiet ones I bet) lol. That's a good point about the train! Hope you have a great time in the lakes when you go. Look forward to seeing your videos.
@@Hiking.and.mountains Hi mate. I’m hoping to do Mellbreak and Hen Combe. Should be pretty quiet during the week. If I want real solitude I go in to the Forest of Bowland. I can walk for hours and miles there and not see a sole. 👍
Nice walk up there , great views and moody sky like it! Good visit to Craig Gwaun Taf at the end! It’s a beautiful mountain on a weekday evening, not in the summer months to beat the crowds, if you get a chance to revisit. I’m the same as you I massively overpack but have that anxiety of needing something lol. Occasionally I do a hike were I use everything in my bag and all layers and feel smug after that lol . Best wishes
I bet it's absolutely stunning at Sunset on a weekday! I'll definitely go again, but will 100% aim for the quieter times and maybe a quieter way up like you did! Ha.... I am yet to use everything in my bag but I always feel like I might lol. Have a good weekend!
Just purchased this chair from go outdoors yesterday and sitting on it now as I watch this short.. And I didn't know it had a side pocket so thanks for introducing that!! I literally said "nooo way!!" 😂 thanks
😂😂 glad to be of service! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful day😂
Always lol.
Hey, just come across your videos and love what youre creating. This was such an honest video. Beautiful walk and great night out. Thanks for taking us with you.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I really appreciate it! Especially the kind words. 👍
Brilliant review👌 It lookks great too👍
It’s decent to sit on mate! Just keeping the channel ticking over until i’m in the lakes this weekend! I wish I lived nearer the Mountains !! I’d be up them every week!
@Hiking.and.mountains I think you will do well on reviews. Have a look at channel called the walking Kev. He lives near me. His video's are very good but he doesn't get many views. He reviews aldi backpacks lidl hiking boots etc and get brilliant views on that. Worth Looking at mucker. You speak well and film well, I'm pretty rough😂 and crap with tech. I'm very fortunate I've got mountain all around me and walk often just don't film it all.
@@JamieHarding5 Cheers mate appreciate it, i'll check him out. UA-cam can be crazy sometimes, i've seen some great channels that don't have anywhere near as many followers as they should. Your vids are great! You can't tell that you are crap with tech lol.
💜💙
great❤❤
Looks like a good tent! Great review 👍🏼
Tent looks great, what mic you use sound quality is decent 😊
Thanks for watching mate. The mic used in this vid is a Tonor TC30 usb mic that I use for voiceovers. £26 on amazon at the moment.
@@Hiking.and.mountains nice man, definitely can invest in that without breaking the bank as need one for voiceovers, my wireless one is a Fulaim x5 cost me £80 making do till I save up for a DJI one 😀
@@Stewartway yea I was dubious when I got it as it was quite cheap but it’s actually decent. I just lost a DJI mic up a mountain 🤦♂️ Devastated! Those Fulaim mics look good. How you got on with it?
Good deal, good for big hike👌👍
bit lighter than that 3 man you were lugging ay! Yours was like a palace though lol.
Hi mate. That looks a decent summer tent if you know your going to have decent weather where your travelling light and will be day outside most of the evening. 😃👍🏕️
Definitely. I was in a cloud when I wild camped so had to just lay down inside all night 😂 but for a nice day, it wouldn’t have been a problem. I’ve got a tarp for next time just in case.
Hi my Friend how are you ? Very nice vidéo another, thank you very much for sharing, take care, Laurent 🙂👍
Hi Laurei, i’m good how about you? Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Great video. Whats the rough time from carpark to the summit i fancy doing it?
Hiya, thanks for watching! It took me around 2 hours at a steady pace, so i'd use that as a guide.
I agree! It's really stunning walk! I love the drone footage and the views from the top are amazing! 🙂
Thanks for taking the time to watch 😄
@@Hiking.and.mountains I am always happy to watch outdoor & nature videos especially with such an amazing views! 🙂 Liked & Subscribed!🙂

@@Hiking.and.mountains man i wish, i could go on a hike with you 😭, for how long have you been trekking?
I love mountains! That was a great content.
Me too, they are awesome! Thanks for watching!
So beautiful place ❤
Here is summer bro in Indonesia Temperature 33-34 in days and 26 at night 🥵😁 Jamie said I melted 😅
Ha! Yes I would melt in that as well! We had our hottest day of the year here yesterday (finally) and I struggled so Indonesian Summer would finish me lol.
Really cool 😎❤
Such a stunning place! Great scramble! Thanks!
@@Hiking.and.mountains Ya and she's awesome 😎 Always take care both of you ❤
@@jasmineaulia31 Thank you! She is isn't she! That was her first scramble and she did so well!
Awesome 😎
My feet really needed it that day 😂 thanks for taking the time to watch!
@@Hiking.and.mountains Yes, after walking we need to relax😊 Now i just came home from morning walk 🚶🚶 Here is about 6:30am And you are sleep well already right 🤗🥰 Have a good sleep 😴
That looks mad mate.
It was awesome!!!! I want to go back when it’s not so claggy because the view is meant to be AMAZING from the top. We could barely see 10m ahead of us at the top 😂
Thanks for sharing this mate, good reminder of when I did the Triathlon here in 2011, have a great week Ryan 😊
Wow, FairPlay on doing a triathlon! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment mate. Really appreciate it!
Some really nice shots there of the Lake District, all the best Ryan 😊
Thanks Ryan, appreciate it mate.
Great 👌
Thank you! 😀
Best of advice we had when hiking in mud recently, just go through the lowest point, you'll probably slip into it anyway if you try and avoid it. Granted this was in Hawaii and the mud / water wasn't freezing cold!!
I’ll pack my micro spikes next time the weather is like this for some extra grip and i’ll bring my trekking poles. Sliding in mud in Hawaii sounds fun 😂🌴
Some parts of California are beautiful, but this makes me miss home, the UK. Stunning views.
Some stunning places here…. i really want to explore California though! But avoiding any mountain lions 😂
@@Hiking.and.mountains And bears, rattlesnakes, spiders.
@@Peasap might stick to the lakes……
Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. subd & 👍7
Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I really appreciate it. I'll head on over to your channel now to take a look :)
Beautiful
Thanks Claire! I can't wait to go back again when we get the chance. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. It's really appreciated!
Hi mate, nice video 👍 Just subscribed to help you out, I know how difficult it is to get noticed, I’ve been trying to get my videos out there for over a year! I love that buttermere ridge, it’s one of my favourite walks, views are incredible in all directions. Need to do a wild camp up there soon. Thanks for sharing Take care Dave
Thanks mate, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch, comment and subscribe! I'll head over and watch some vids and do the same. I haven't really explored buttermere until this trip, but it's amazing isn't it. I will deffo be back. We want to do a wild camp there as well!
