Trip Overview

Conquer three iconic peaks across the valleys and mountains of South Wales. This three-peak challenge takes in the most dramatic summits in the southern Brecon Beacons, including the famous Pen y Fan — the highest point in southern Britain at 886m. The route traverses the central Beacons ridgeline, taking in three distinct summits with dramatic views across the Welsh valleys to the south and the rolling Welsh heartland to the north. Well-maintained paths make the terrain manageable, but the cumulative climbing provides a genuine challenge.

"This was my first time cycling with Adventure Cafe; first time riding from London to Paris and my first time riding this sort of distance over 3 days. Lots of preparation had gone into this from AC prior to departing London."
