The Cats Back, Black Hill & Hay Bluff

Today we left Wales to climb one of the highest English peaks south of Yorkshire & the Lakes - Black Hill standing at 640m (Kinder Scout 636m). We got there over the impressive Cats Back or Crib yr Garth before heading back into Wales and Hay Bluff. Weather was fantastic with gliders and paragliders in the air!

In total we hiked 15.6km with a total ascent of 834m which took us just over 4hrs.
