Map View Is Here!
Yes, we’ve developed a net waist on the events calendar and it is the maps view. This view shows all of the Wales Outdoors programmed…
Covid 19 In The Great Outdoors
“There is really almost no instance that we know of, of transmission occurring outside.” SAGE (recently) and leading health professionals state there is close to…
Pont Melin Fach
I walked past this small and usually rather quiet car park a couple of weekends ago and it was locked. This is my exchange with…
The English Are Coming!
Wales Outdoors welcomes the English back to Wales and invite the English to Join Us! for one of our wonderful walks… Yes, as of the…
Airbnb Have Deemed Us Fit For Purpose
I’ve got a plan and it’s linked to how I see the future of business and product promotions developing. And I know, given it having a year or two to bed in, I know it will be enough on its own and I will be able to wave goodbye to the big platforms once and for all. Fingers crossed 😉
Waterfalls Walking
It was a big water day but bright and sunny too – in fact a perfect day for a walk in the waterfalls area of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Coronavirus And Us…
So, until we get clear and sensible advice and until cafes and bars are ordered closed we’ll be delivering guided walks in the Great Outdoors every Saturday and Sunday and sometimes during the week too 🙂
Walk Description Template
This is how we are going to build the pages on this website, with each walk having a full description, with details of height gained and distance, with a gallery and with a video fly through…
Merthyr Mawr Meander
Meeting by Ogmore Castle was a mistake – the river, due to a good deal of rain the previous week, was high and the stepping stones were not available and so the group made there way by car to Candleston Car Park and so to begin the walk from there.
What Appalling Weather!
What a difference a day makes… from a low level and mild and dry waterfall walk to this – just about as bad as weather in Wales can get!
2000 Footers – 1
A couple of years back Andy delivered a series of walks across the Brecon Beacons National Park and they were a great success, taking in, one range or ridge or peak at a time, all of the hills over 2000ft.
The Sleeping Giant
And on the first Sunday of the New Year the walking baton was handed to Graham and he led a very enjoyable wander over the amazing small mountain called Cribarth at the the top end of the Swansea Valley.
Solstice Sunrise
Despite the early start, it was still dark when we gathered at the car park of the Brecon Beacons National Park visitor centre, we had a large group of keen walkers turn up for our megaliths and roman road and Iron Age solstice sunrise walk.
Walking the Waterfalls
Getting towards the end of the year and the last but one waterfalls walk and one surprisingly not well attended, not sure why, maybe everyone was out last minute shopping, but hey, that meant we had the waterfalls to ourselves 🙂
Holy Loaf
It was a challenge day, the Holy Loaf Challenge! After walking the Sugar Loaf and then The Skirrid as shorter walks over the past few weeks Andy had planned in a mega challenge day that was 12.5 miles long and included 1000metres of ascent… think of snowdon but double the distance…
