π Pen y Fan Mountain π ποΈ π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ South Wales' highest peak and probably the best Pen y Fan climb I've done out of my 273,625 visits... πποΈ
Last night's sunset was something else. π
The mountain was quiet, the paths weren't crowded, and for once there was no rush to get up and back down. Just time to stop, breathe, look around and properly take it all in.
After visiting its beautiful sister mountain, Llyn y Fan Fach, on Friday, I wasn't expecting Pen y Fan to top the weekend... but it did. β€οΈ
The colours across the Brecon Beacons were incredible, the light kept changing every few minutes, and standing on the summit watching the sun disappear behind the hills reminded me exactly why I love the outdoors so much.
No medals. No finish lines. No competition.
Just mountains, fresh air, movement and perspective.
These moments are worth more than any race entry to me. πββοΈπ
If you've never climbed Pen y Fan at sunset, put it on your list.
Trust me... it's pure magic. β¨

Salt water, sunrise skies, and smiles all round π
πβ¨ my first Penarth Dip this year!
Reminder π¨ early alarms are always worth it for a South Wales sunrise dip π
Cold water therapy, fresh air, and the best way to start the day with the Dawnstalkers crew ππ₯

South Wales π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ Brecon Beacons hikes just hit different β°οΈπ
First time exploring Llyn y Fan Fach in the Brecon Beacons today and dare I say itβ¦ I think I actually prefer it over Pen Y Fan π
Yes, Pen Y Fan is higher overall, but this route honestly felt tougher. The climbs were steeper, the terrain rougher, and the whole hike felt far more wild and remote exactly the kind of challenge I love β€οΈ
Plus trail running back down was epic with no crowds to dodge!
Much quieter, more peaceful, and the scenery was unreal from start to finish. I covered just under 13K / 8 miles in total and every section felt worth it. One of those hikes where every turn gives you another incredible view.
And the best part? Finishing it all with a freezing cold dip in the waterfalls at the bottom before heading home π₯ΆπΏ
Definitely adding this one to my favourites list π₯Ύ
