An opportunity to explore the Brecon Beacons at night with a fully qualified Mountain Guide and Dark Skies Ambassador as part of the Dark Skies Festival. During the evening we will explore Mynydd Illtud and Twyn y Gaer.
Fingers crossed for a clear night as our location will provide an ideal vantage point to see the Milky Way, major constellations, bright nebulas and even meteor showers, a must for any star gazer!
We will spend some time on the summit where your guide will help you orientate yourself by pointing out the major constellations. All you will need is your hiking gear including warm layers and your camera to capture the night skies. Head torches will be supplied to all.
Dorian Thomas, your guide for the night is a qualified mountain leader and a Brecon Beacons Ambassador, ideal to look after you and also provide insight to the area. As we travel he will provide insight to the area from wildlife, flora, fauna, culture, history, legends and of course the dark skies.
The hike grade is easy - maximum 5km or 3 miles in easy terrain. The hike will be at a relaxed pace so all can enjoy the evening. A full kit list will be provided on booking.
Trigpoint Adventures is fully insured for your piece of mind, there are no minimum booking numbers so the hike will run with just one booking.
