Black Hiking | Pen y Fan

Oct 12, 2021, 11:37 AM

As a Black Brit from London,  going out for a hike used to feel like an alien concept for Sean.
However, after 4 years working at the National Trust, he’s now developed a love for the great outdoors and all things Wilderness.

His sister, like many others, has never been for a hike in her life.
 
Can Sean convince her to embrace the outdoors on her first ever hike as they venture into Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) to climb Pen y Fan or will she be on the first train back to the capital?
