What a chilled out video and the cat was boss! The Blorenge, that overlooks Abergavenny, is another great hike. On a clear day, great views of Mid Wales, the Marches, South Wales, the Severn Estuary and the Cotswolds can be seen from the summit top. It’s a really good hike actually. I have seen wild campers on Blorenge and plenty of wild ponies. Keepers Pond and the Punchbowl are well worth a visit on the Blorenge hike.
That's a great looking pizza! I love your "leave no trace" outlook. Look, I'm an off-roader. It's my first love and I've been doing that since I was a teenager, and I'm 57 now. My friends and I are in vehicles that could easily destroy pristine land, but we stick to trails that are meant for off-road and overland vehicles. One time in, I think '99, my brother and I were around Ouray, Colorado. It's pretty heavily forested up there with amazing views. We parked our jeeps and decided to day hike along a foot trail to a place rumored to have a hot spring. We came across a spot just off trail that was totally trashed. Beer cans, soda cans, food wrappers and discarded camping supplies just littered the place. It was disgraceful. There was an ice chest left behind and even a toilet seat. Flattened vegetation, where tents had obviously been, indicated to us that they had left only recently. We ended up camping nearby in hopes that they would come back so we could "express our displeasure" but they never did. So, good for you ladies for leaving no trace. Sadly, we don't get that a lot here in the US. Rock on!
Thank you so much, and yes LNT is one of my main principles when out & about! It’s important for people to adhere to it not only just to respect the outdoors & wildlife, but so campers/wild campers don’t get a bad reputation. It’s unfortunate that those who trash scenic sites after a camping trip is the main reason why wild camping isn’t legal in England (but is tolerated as long as you’re quiet & tidy) so I do my best to leave a place as I found it. Thanks for sharing your story, and for being someone who respects the outdoors too 😁
Superb trip Tiny. A nice approach to camp - I agree it's a good way to start the adventure. Lovely food cooked up there and some nice views of the Blorenge from across the way. Re-the Sugar Loaf the views are a treat as are the ponies. I can see the mountain from my home and have enjoyed it a good number of times. Well good going. All the best. Mark
That is a beautiful cat! It's been decades since I was in Abergavenny, my girlfriend at the time had friends with a farm out there, and we went to visit when it was one of their birthdays. Great fun, lovely place.
Another wonderful video. Nice of you to briefly make an appearance and let us put a face to the voice. I'm wondering if this was filmed before the Coast to Coast as the title says Spring 2023?
Thank you! Yeah I'm slowly getting more comfortable in front of the camera:) This was filmed about a month before the Coast to Coast, I put out those videos first as I wanted them published asap then came back to work on these 😁 my following videos from this one will all be chronological & after the C2C
At least you had decent weather for it, I was dragged up it as a child in cloud and/or rain and I have nothing good to say about Sugar Loaf. Scarred. 😅 I love cats too - a perfect environment for it but they devastate the wildlife, so I've mixed feelings.
I can imagine in bad weather the hike up sugarloaf can be quite tense! And I'm a cat person too, I suppose it's good for the farm's mice control (even though I love mice too!) which could be an argument, but I know they can attack birds too, that's why I think indoor cats are a better idea than outdoor cats. Though I suppose animals are animals and humans are 100% the most devastating threat to wildlife more than anything... so it's a tricky topic to navigate in my opinion, as a vegetarian, animal lover & cat lover my feelings can often contradict one another, but I suppose that's just like me having a healthy debate with myself 😂
@@swibwi it’s just a space for women, it’s not that deep. Throughout the years men have men’s clubs, no women allowed etc, so why can’t a group of women go camping in the woods for someone to find an issue due to the lack of men? Especially in such a male dominated activity? It isn’t sexism, and calling something as innocent as this sexist takes all power from actual sexism.
@@Orenjen i respect your opinion , i just feel that we shouldn't be encouraging groups of women to get together without any male supervision as generally women tend to scheme in women only groups , you could all be hatching some sort of dangerous plan for all we know
@ sorry if you meant it as a joke, you never know. I think my response covered all bases for those who would actually get offended by the notion of an all-women camping trip.
Lovely Video well filmed edited and gently presented. Hope to see more of your adventures
Thank you I’m so glad you thought so!🥰
Absolutely brilliant! The Sugarloaf is always a good climb with rewarding views, I'll never tire of it.
Thank you! Yeah it was a great hike 😁

Lovely chill vlog and not all me me me absolutely loved it.
So glad you think so ☺️
Gorgeous film my friend, shots are amazing!
Thank you so much, glad you think so! 😁
Another cracking video lass...I thought that sheep was stood on a podium about 2 and half minutes in 😂😂😂
Haha I see it! 😂
Beautiful, simple, great places. 👍
Thank you 🥰
Such a lovely and relaxing video. And what a good idea to have a women's camping/walking group. The cat was very cute as well 😊
Glad you enjoyed it, it was a great experience 😁 and yes the cat was so sweet! 🐈⬛
A lovely nice and chilled out video! That cat was so cute 😍. I love sugarloaf definitely of my favourite mountains ⛰️.
Thank you Matt, it was a special experience for sure!😁

Thank you 😁 it was definitely a trip to remember, so many stunning places in Wales and this is definitely one of them⛰️
@@Orenjen A real pleasure. Yeah, Wales is a gem for sure - and the borders are worth exploring to. Have a great week ahead.
That is a beautiful cat! It's been decades since I was in Abergavenny, my girlfriend at the time had friends with a farm out there, and we went to visit when it was one of their birthdays. Great fun, lovely place.
The cat was lovely, and yeah Abergavenny is great with lovely surroundings 😁
Lovely video Jen! The owl noise at 11.20 woke Bellé up and now she's looking around my room frantically 😂
Haha that’s brilliant! Bless her 😂
That vineyard coffee shop is great but giving way, reversing up hill in a family car round those lanes is terrifying!
Hi nice to see you all had a great time beautiful place . Thanks for the upload
@@paulcorbin7495 thank you, glad you enjoyed! It was wonderful ☺️
Awsome too see women out together not something you see very often and with the music and voice over very relaxing new sub atvb
I’m so glad you think so, thank you very much!🥰

Wow, looks like a great time was had by all. Love to see more like this. Might be a trivial point, but your pizza looked fantastic😊
@@tommaroon531 oh it was wonderful and the pizza was lovely, such a cool experience to cook it on the fire!
Still with you Babe ❤

Where are you from , if its ok to ask
Oh wow you're eyes are beautiful
Oh thank you!
seems a bit sexist just women, why can't men come?
