Hiking the British mountains and hills

This is a list of our walks in everything hilly in the UK (so this basically qualifies as Mountaineering).

The spots to explore are mainly:

  • The Berwin range, in Wales (the closest)
  • Snowdonia, in Wales (also close and more scenic, we started there in April (2017).
  • The peak district.
  • The black mountains (south Wales).
  • The lake district.
  • Cheviot Hills.
  • Highlands, in Scotland.
  • Irish mountains (MacGillycuddy's Reeks, Mourne & Sperring mountains).
