One week hillwalk ideas

**armr617** · 03-03-2010, 21:30

greetings.
I was reading another thread on here and it got me thinking.

Any ideas on a mon-fri hillwalk, preferably not too many hours driving from Surrey.
Want to get a few hills in, not looking to be tabbing juts a good long walk, wild camp is preferable.

Head for llanthony priory (multimap/google it) as your base. Good campsite and a celler bar, bogs, water etc was abou 2quid a night couple of years ago.
grab an os map and just head west for a day or two. Then come back. Great scenery.

Hmmm, Idea is to AVOID beer and pub food, lose a few pounds

Go to the Becon Beacons website and look up the aircrashes, then start at Lanthony and try and do as many sites as you can in the time,there are about 40 crash sites in the national park
