Nature of the Brecon Beacons

Kevin Walker lives in the Brecon Beacons, and has been a professional mountain leader and hill guide for almost four decades. A self-confessed mountain addict, he ran ML training courses for several years, and has written many books including Wild Country Camping, The Essential Hillwalkers’ Guide, Undiscovered Wales, and Mountain and Moorland Navigation. He runs a wide range of navigation and hill skills courses, as well as offering personal tuition, 1:1 coaching, and private guiding. Further details of his courses are available on his web site at www.mountain-activities.com.

When not teaching or guiding, he spends most of his free time exploring, photographing and writing about the less well known parts of Wales, with occasional trips to further flung hills, most recently in Australia and New Zealand.
