The steady ascent suits all fitness levels and rewards you with breathtaking views as the sun breaks over the mountains. \nRegistrations have now closed!

However\, for our sunrise summit attempt we are walking in the dark so care and attention is needed at all times especially around the summit area and on the descent around Corn Ddu. \nCrossing the Pont ar Daf and picking up the Beacons Way national trail we wind our way up past waterfalls climbing quite steeply before we arrive at Blwch Duwynt which is at 2.5km into our route. \nBy the time we reach the Bwlch most of the height gain has been achieved as we are now at 814m with only 72m left to climb! \nThe final 1km of walking is relatively straightforward as we contour around the cliff face of Corn Ddu (Black Horn) to reach the summit of Pen-y-Fan 886m with its well-preserved Bronze aged cairn. \nDESCENT \nOur descent begins by retracing our steps for 0.5km to an intersection of paths just below Corn Ddu. Instead of continuing down our ascent route we take the path to the right below the cliff face of Craig Cwm Llwch. \nAfter approximately 300m we pick up our descent route heading south west for 1.5km until we cross Blaen Taf Fawr. We then have a short uphill section before our final 1km of descent down behind the Storey Arms. \nOnce back we pick up the path that runs parallel with the road for our final 1km walk back to the starting point. \nWhat you will need – kit list\nRucksack – about 35 litres\nBoots (with ankle support and soles which will grip on rock\, grass and mud)\nWaterproof jacket (with hood)\nWaterproof over trousers\nGeneral trekking trousers (not jeans or cotton material)\nThermal top\nFleece top\nGaiters (not always essential)\nWarm hat \nGloves or mitts\nSpare layer e.g. fleece top\nTorch (preferably a head torch)\nFood & Drink\nFirst Aid Kit (small)\nMobile phone \nSunhat\nSun cream\nSunglasses

SUMMARY:Wear Wellies Day
DESCRIPTION:Wear Wellies Day \nThursday 29th February 2024 (or pick a date to suit you!) \nGet your friends\, family\, colleagues and students to take part in our Wear Wellies Day and raise money for Winston’s Wish simply by wearing your favourite wellies! \nUnlike adults\, who stay with their grief\, children often jump in and out of their grief. We describe this journey as ‘puddle jumping’. This means that they may initially be upset about their loss but my then appear to be fine for a period of time and then become upset again\, and so on. This can be very confusing for both children and the adults who care for them. \nConversations can allow children to express their emotions; be it sadness\, anger\, joy or fear. By opening up these important conversations about death we can allow children who are grieving to ‘puddle jump’ while understanding their mixed emotions. \nThat’s why we’re asking schools\, community groups and businesses to join us for a day of fun. \nSign up to take part by filling in the form below and we’ll send you a fundraising pack with everything you’ll need to get started. Register today and help us to do more for grieving children and young people across the UK. \n[vc_raw_html]
