Overview

We will kit up and then head off into the wild country of the Brecon Beacons National Park, taking in waterfalls and valleys as we go. There is nothing else like being out and about with your house on your back and the ability to walk to areas that few other tread and to sleep out in a Dark Skies environment. It's a reboot if you like, a chance to escape from the tech of modern living.
