The summit of Pen y Fan
Yr Un Mawr!*
Last year I played 54 holes of golf in one day to support the work of Little Scribblers’ Nursery School in Larkhall. The money we raised allowed Emma Whipp and Sarah Brooks to improve the play area at Little Scribblers.
This year, I have decided to walk the Beacons Circuit in the Brecon Beacons National Park. This 11 mile circuit covers three of the main summits and ridges of the central Brecon Beacons. It includes the summit of Pen y Fan (886 metres) the highest peak in southern Britain (south of Snowdonia). I will plan this trek for a weekday in the last two weeks of August. I’m going to try to avoid a rainy or windy day ( the trail guide warns that unexpected gusts of wind have sometimes blown hikers over the outcroppings).

* Welsh for: The Big One! An epic 11 mile (17.7km) circuit of the main summits and ridges of the central Brecon Beacons in a spectacular day's walk.
Or if you prefer the whole description in Welsh:
Yr Un Mawr! Cylchdaith arwraidd 11 milltir (17.7km) o brif gopaon a chribau ardal ganolig Bannau Brycheiniog mewn taith un diwrnod wych.
