Book description
The first book in a two-volume series describing walking routes up
every 2000-footer in Wales - all 166 of them. The result is not just a
guide to the mountains of Snowdonia, but a handbook of over 450 routes
covering 21 Welsh mountain ranges - the whale-backed ridges of the Black
Mountains, the Brecon Beacons' precipitous escarpments, the Cwmdeuddwr
uplands, Plynlimon's unknown valleys, the heather clad Berwyns, Cader
Idris, the vast solitudes of the Arans and Arenigs, the Rhinogs and the
wildest land in Wales. For those longer days the author also suggests
over 100 high level traverses. This volume covers: the Arans, Arenigs,
Berwyns, Black Mountains, Brecon Beacons, Cader Idris, Carneddau,
Cwmdeuddwr hills and Dovey hills. Peter Hermon spent most of his
working life as an executive with British Airways, but despite
travelling the world the lure of the British hills never paled and he
still explores the peaks of Lakeland, Wales and the Pennines.
