SUMMARY:Walk: Wild Fforest Fawr 22km/13.5miles\, 835m/2740ft ascent (Moderate/Hard)
DESCRIPTION:In the Middle Ages\, “forest” referred to land demarcated for hunting by the nobility. Lying between the Brecon Beacons to the east and the Carmarthen Fans (Black Mountain) to the west\, Fforest Fawr was once extensively wooded. Populated by red deer\, several areas were also set aside for the breeding of rabbits for meat and fur. Today this desolate upland is known mainly for sheep and cattle farming\, water catchment\, and conifer plantations. With extant prehistoric monuments and sites of scientific interest it is a remote walking area in the middle of the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park.\n\nStarting from the car park in Ystradfellte village\, our moderate to hard walk of 22km/13.5miles with 835m/2740ft ascent will take us on a journey through the wildest and least frequented parts\, where (weather permitting) we can view the scenic panorama that is the Fforest Fawr mountain range of Fan Gyhirych\, Fan Fraith\, Fan Nedd\, Fan Llia\, and Fan Fawr. We will journey through the rough and wild landscape to ascend and traverse the first three of these summits before returning to our starting point.\n\nStart at 9.30am. OS Explorer Map OL12\, grid reference SN929134.\nFor your safety and the safety of other members\, we advise minimum personal equipment requirements for all our walks.
