Guten Morgen euch allen!
Vor zwei Tagen habe ich einen schönen Sonnenuntergang am Ende von meinem Spaziergang erlebt. Die Sonne "auftanken" das hat guuut gemacht! Einige Vögel haben dort auch ihrem Rast gelegt: Nonengänse, Kanadagänse, Enten, zwei Schwäne, drei Kormorane, Blesshühner ...
☺️🍀🍀🍀🌞

Thinking of this song after a big Thanksgiving meal. Set out for a walk to work off a piece of pie (or at least q pecan or two)...

Walk On

Good ol' #NeilYoung #music #musica #musique #musik #WalkOn #walk

I hear some people been talkin' me down
Bring up my name, pass it 'round
They don't mention happy times
They do their thing, I'll do mine
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel
Some get stoned, some get strange
Sooner or later, it all gets real
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on
I remember the good old days
Stayed up all night gettin' crazed
Then the money was not so good
But we still did the best we could
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel
Some get stoned, some get strange
Sooner or later it all gets real
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on
Walk on, walk on

The second full day of our visit to #BannauBrycheiniog was devoted to visiting #PenYFan, the tallest #peak in south #Wales. This was a very nice #walk of 15 km with some steep ascents and descents but no climbing.

Starting from the car park, a path started to climb gently upwards. You can see Pen Y Fan on the horizon near the centre of the image.
Starting path to Pen Y Fan

As we approached the #mountain, we could make out a #path up towards the summit.

The path passes a small #reservoir and the #dam has an interesting castellated feature on it.

Along the way there are several valleys leading to #farm #fields.

As the path turns, you can see where you've just come from.

The land around the mountains are used for grazing #sheep. Here are two who have been shorn of their winter #fleeces.

On the final steeper ascent up Pen Y Fan you can here see the craggy north side of the neighbouring mountain, #Cribyn.

Looking back south, you can make out the edge of the reservoir we passed.

The path gets steadily steeper and is partially paved to provide durability and grip. The view keeps getting better.

Arriving at the summit with some effort, you are rewarded with an all-round view. We were very lucky as I was told by someone that the day before, the peak had been shrouded in cloud. Dozens of other people were also enjoying the spectacle.

Here I am at the summit at an elevation of 886 m. From the start point, that's a climb of about 650 m.

The path back to the start is along a #ridge affording views of the valleys either side.

The path on the ridge is not dangerous unless you get carelessly close to the edge but it is uneven and has large stones in places whereas in others, it is covered in black #peat.

Looking back towards Pen Y Fan, you can just make out the figures of people waling on the horizon.

The valley edge looks precarious but in summer, I don't think it is a great danger.

In the south western horizon are a group of #WindTurbines. I am sure wind will be an important energy resource for #Wales in the coming decades.

The return to the car park as along this path down across the valley.

To get to it, required us to descend some steep roughly buiilt stone stairs. For me this was the most hazardous part of the walk as I was tired by now and my knees were getting very sore. It was a relief to get back to the car.

Guten sonnigen Tag wünsche ich euch!🌞
Gestern war erster schöner und sonniger Tag bei uns nach soooo langer Zeit. Ich war unterwegs mit meiner Tochter. Auch ein kleiner Bummel durch Stadt Rheine mit dem Eis 🍦in der Hand war ein kleines Erlebnis für uns. Die große Sehnsucht nach dem Frühling war gestern ein wenig gestillt! ☺️😉👍🍀🍀🌞
