롤스톤‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪10‬개의 천연기념물

Easy accent if climbing from the side of the national trust carpark. For a more challenging climb, accend from the opposite side.

This summit with beautiful views over the Black Mountains on the border between Wales and England, felt like the real start of the Beacon Way.

Although you can barely walk about 2.5m above the surrounding land on this 12-century-old dike, you still get a nice picture of the area. For those walking the Beacons Way, this is a nice run-up to the hills of Brecon Beacon National Park.

Great views of Sugar Loaf and Skirrid from this little top in the south of the Black Mountains. Good cairn at 384m.

The trig point on Hatterrall Hill stands at 531m. The summit is part of the Hatterrall Ridge which runs north south from Llanvihangel Crucorney up to Hay Bluff. The Offa’s Dyke National Trail follows the ridge path.

Skirrid (Ysgyryd) Fawr is an outlier of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons), set within the Black Mountains on the eastern edge of the National Park. The obvious route from the car park makes a great run, heading to the south up the beautiful main ridge. You can drop off the steep side to loop around the mountain, or turn round and speed back down the ridge. The summit at the northern end of the ridge has a trig point standing at 1,595 feet (486 m). The intriguing remnants of both an Iron Age hill fort and mediæval chapel are quite obvious here. Skirrid is also the first (or last) peak on the Beacons Way and the Abergavenny Three Peaks loop.

Fairly easy trail, can get a little muddy if it has been raining heavily.

Really cool trail, nice to look to one side and see England, and to the other and see Wales. Interesting that England is mostly farmland, whilst Wales is nice and wild.
