Today's hike is a half-day hike in the Brecon Beacons National Park to Fan y Big, not as popular as it's neighbours Pen y Fan, Cribyn & Corn Du but equally worth a visit. I parked at the Blaen y Glyn Uchaf Car Park, and it took me just under 2 hours to get to the summit of Fan y Big. It involves a fairly steep ascent to begin but the eventual views are most definitely worth it! I'd recommend giving yourself 4 hours at a minimum to enjoy this circular walk and even the entire day if you have the energy to go on further to the other main peaks in this central part of the Beacons.

There's need of a very brief lesson in Welsh. It's pronounced "van er beeg" (the tip of the beak). Enjoyable vid though.

@shefreelyroams 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Andrew - glad you enjoyed the video and yes, I’m pleased to say I’ve learnt how to pronounce this one now! 🙌🏻🙂

Fan y Big is a great one to tick off too, can also recommend the Carmarthen fans & Craig Cerrig-gleisiad 😊

Great walk, lovely part of the world and you got some nice conditions for it and some nice skies.

@shefreelyroams Год назад

Thank you Kev 🤗 Couldn’t agree more, Wales is beautiful! The weather definitely varied on this walk but the sun came out at the summit so couldn’t complain!

@@shefreelyroams hoping to get up to cairn Pica for a wild camp this weekend.

@shefreelyroams Год назад

@@TheWalkingKev ah wow, that’ll be beautiful up there Saturday, meant to be sunny & clear so the sunrise could be good 🤞🏻 hope you enjoy!

Thank you Ross 🙏🏻😊 It really is a beautiful part of the world! Glad you enjoyed the video!

Great video. I did that walk a couple of weeks ago and it was stunning. I did it last year to watch the sunrise and the views were spectacular. You’ve a nice way of filming and editing and I’m surprised you’ve not got more subscribers yet. Keep up the good work 👍😊

@shefreelyroams Год назад

Thank you Phil - I really appreciate the kind words😊 yes it’s a beautiful ridge walk - haven’t done it yet at sunrise or sunset, imagine it would be really beautiful. Definitely on the bucket list! Glad you’re enjoying the videos, I’m still learning so much about editing so excited for what’s to come 📸🤗

Beautiful film from a stunning and familiar landscape. Thank you for sharing

@shefreelyroams Год назад

Thank you - happy to hear you enjoyed the video & are familiar with the area, it's a really beautiful part of Wales 😊 💛

Fantastic all the way. So pleased you got the winter in up there. It sure did make the difference to the feel and the views. I was excited for you. It looked as if you got back down buzzing and no wonder. All the very best. Mark

@shefreelyroams Год назад

Thanks Mark - so glad you enjoyed watching and you're right, I was really content to have made it back down after such an exhilarating hike given the conditions! Hope you are well on your way to recovery now in terms of your injury. Wishing you all the best too! :)

@WyeExplorer Год назад

@@shefreelyroams A pleasure there. Yeah, you looked on a high - great stuff. Me? I've just seen a specialist and had my ankle scanned. Arthritis his says. It's an old injury - snapped it clean and had metal put in it years ago. See what happens - I'm hopeful. Peace.

@shefreelyroams Год назад

That sounds promising and reassuring at least to know what the issue is. This cold weather can’t be helping at all I imagine. Take care 🤍

@WyeExplorer Год назад

@@shefreelyroams Yeah a fix on what it is helps. Putting my foot in a freezing cold bucket has actually helped. Peace.

@shefreelyroams Год назад

Who would have thought that would ever be pleasant! Glad you’re remaining positive and finding solutions 👍🏻😊
