Milgatw Waterfall sounds like a hidden gem

Awesome

Nice one Kev.. that's more water than I have seen coming over it in a good while. The tramway you was walking on leads to Trefil quarries. If you followed it around you would come out at Rassau Ind Est but they have changed the route towards the end since the new section on the heads was built. Back in 2004 I did a walk from Storey Arms to Nye Bevan Stones and this was part of my route. Happy waterfall hunting Kev.... atb Al

Love it there Kev. I agree that it wild be lovely on a nice summers day and a perfect camping spot 👌

Great jacket for the money 👌

Thank you Kev.

Nice one Kev, great to see you out again, my days off lately always seem to coincide with weather that is pants!

Nice video Kev. Have a lovely evening 😊

Thanks for sharing, Kev.😊 Looks a lovely little walk. Sarah

Thanks for the inspiration. I would love to make 2025 the year where I explore more waterfalls ❤

Another one very local to me. I had a few nice photos taken there. The track is the old Bryn Oer (Brinore) tram road. Brought limestone from the quarries at Trefil an Cefn Yr Ystrad to the iron works at Sirhowy

Viel zu schwer zum Wandern 😢

👍

😀

I quite like Regatta, their products aren't the most expensive even full price. That jacket looks really useful & very warm, this winter we need that after some very mild Welsh winters previously. I bought an extra small Trespass men's jacket last winter & I love it, room for a thin long sleeved fleece from Mountain Warehouse underneath & no wet pockets! It's longer at the back, nice long sleeves with a velcro strap at the cuff which isn't necessary as it fits closely already.

Thanks for this review - I ordered it yesterday. This video convinced me immediately. My main reasons for this phone: Most rugged phones today are simply very large. The handy size as the BV9900E is difficult to find. I found the BV9900E because of a luxury I wanted to treat myself to: Qi wireless charging. A small luxury that i woulde make a commitment to in the future. My current Samsung, and I've only had Samsung Xcovers for decades, has a wake contact and the current 7 version is just too big for me.

Well done, Kev. You've done well to stick with this for a full 200 days so far. Good to hear your thoughts about it too. The opposite can be said of fitness vs bodyweight too - i.e. lowering your body fat doesn't necessarily mean that your cardiovascular fitness has improved. Keep going!

Thanks for sharing, Kev.😊 Sarah

Great video Kev. How have you got on with it since the review? I have one but haven't used it yet. I bought it more as a posh emergency bivy. Cheers, Ian

excellent discipline, well done mate

Should've watched the whole video first..! The Breacons are very exposed, which is what gives them their austere beauty - and obviously global warming provides the stunning dusk/dawn backdrops - but your choice of music was sublime, as one imagines was the experience. Thanks again TWK, atb..

Magical......... and the cinematography is fabulous. Thank you TWK. Passed by on the A470 in early Autumn but sadly no time to stop. Are those twin summit cairns, or shelters?

Hey great job got a new subscriber

Great effort on n the challenge Kev, day 200 is amazing! I bet it is pretty difficult finding time in the day some times to fit in all the steps but lots of positives there too. 😊

Well done Kev and good luck for the rest of the year! I started doing 10,000 steps a day about 20 years ago after a medical check-up and agree very much with your findings, especially around mental health benefits and weight loss. I imagine you end up with a lot more muscle and a lot less flab. I aimed for 1 day off a week so 60,000 steps or for me about 27 miles a week. I still can manage that but record the walks on the OS app. If you want to lose weight as well you have to control the calories. In the last year I've managed to lose 20% of my body weight by cutting out sugar in the porridge, cakes, snacks etc and eating a lot more fruit and vegetables. I can still manage the 27 miles a week even though I've passed 80 but doing it in retirement is a lot easier than when I was working. Keep up the challenge because it will pay dividends for you when you get older. Regards Keith

Great challenge Kev & some great points given. Good luck for 2025. atb Al PS Dave is currently doing the Northern Spine this week - now I reckon he's done his 10k steps this week.

Great share, Kev!! It's nice to hear your perspective 😊

Thats quite a commitment Kev. My aim was 100 miles a month, which is a lot less than you. But it means that if I have to miss a day or two, I can catch up, provided I havent left it too late in the month! theres been a few months where Ive had to do a 10 miler on the 30th of a month! Ive managed it for 3 years in a row now and its enough of an incentive to get out and exercise without making me a slave to it and killing the enjoyment. But once you get a way into it, I understand, you dont want to fail. Agree about the weighloss though, its not a magic bullet unless you keep up an uncomfortably high pace.

Nice video Kev 👍

Popped up there a couple of weeks ago, wish the conditions were like this Kev! Had to abort near the summit as my greyhound was not impressed with the wind, mud and driving rain! To be revisited 😅

Enjoyed the video.😊 Stunning scenery. Thanks Kev, for sharing the video. Sarah

Hi Kev, fantastic inversion, it looked incredible on the drone footage. I haven't heard of this hill until now. Views looked great especially from the round cairn. ATB, Adam

What a peaceful video - thanks for taking the time to share it. All the best. Gav from Hiking for Health.

Beautiful video from start to finish 😊

Beautiful scenery on your walk. I liked those stones! 😊

Such a nice video ❤

Cheers Kev another great video 👍

Lovely walk Kev. Trellech was the first place I camped with the Scouts and it coincided with a bus strike so we had to walk into Monmouth and back for provisions. Regards Keith

Nice walk and video Kev. Have a great evening 😊

I bought a Panasonic FZ200 (Bridge camera) for my wife and was surprised at the quality of the pictures it produced so I just bought myself one as well for hiking and I totally love it, it has a Leica 25-600 zoom at a constant f 2.8. and is great for hiking. It is not near as big as the Sony because it uses a smaller sensor but in good lighting it still produces high quality pictures. I have noticed people who have never used a bridge camera dismiss them as junk and people who own and have used them have a different opinion. I would never even think of hiking with my Nikon DSLR with multiple lens ever again.

Absolutely ‘breath’ taking!!!! ❤

Its £45 on outdoor gear website right now if anyone is interested in buying it

Awww 😮 Awesome

Stunning Kev 👌

Nice video Kev. Thank you for sharing 😊

Looks incredible. 😊Thanks Kev.👍
