Today I hiked a whopping 31 km starting near Llanthony Priory and reached 5 Nuttalls in the Black Mountains: Black Mountain (South) (637 m), Twyn Llech (Black Mountain) (703 m), Twmpa (690 m), Rhos Dirion (713 m) and Chwarel Y Fan (679 m).
I met only a handful of people, a few dozen wild ponies and hundreds of grazing sheep...
Along the way there were another 3 mountain tops (Hay Bluff (677 m), Twyn Talycefn (702 m) and Black Hill (640 m) - for the latter I briefly crossed back over the border into England), though none of these 3 are classified as Nuttalls due to their insufficient prominence.
It was quite a full on experience, but loved it all!
Total kilometres hiked: 31.0 km
Total elevation gain: 812 m
Total Nuttalls bagged: 5
