Brecon Beacons National Park Parc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog
The South Wales area is surrounded by the Brecon Beacons National Park. Each year a number of members enjoy leading more adventurous hill walks to the peaks of the National Park, which is on our doorstep.
Cwmpaswyd ardal de Cymru gan Barc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog. Bob blwyddyn bydd un neu ddau o aelodau’r grŵp yn mwynhau arwain teithiau mwy anturus allan i’r tir gwyllt ac i gopaon yr ardal sydd o fewn cyrraedd rhwydd i ardaloedd dinesig de Cymru.
All Wales Weekend Penwythnos Cymru Gyfan
A highlight of the calendar is the All Wales Weekend. Every year in September, one of the groups in Wales organises a popular hostel or bunkhouse weekend. This is an opportunity to explore some of the hidden gems of the Welsh landscape in the company of a local guide. The weekends are sociable and an opportunity to meet with other GOC members. Usually a shared supper appears out of the chaos on the Saturday evening.
Un o uchafbwyntiau’r calendr yw Penwythnos Cymru Gyfan. Bob mis Medi, bydd un o’r grwpiau yn trefnu penwythnos mewn hostel. Bydd yn gyfle i ymweld â rhai o berlau tirwedd Cymru yng nghwmni brodor lleol. Mae’r penwythnosau yn gymdeithasol ac yn gyfle i daro sawl cyfeillgarwch newydd. Fel arfer, byddwn yn rhannu swper ar y nos Sadwrn ac yn aml bydd sawl taith a gweithgareddau amrywiol ar gael yn ystod y dydd.
Llwybr Epynt Way
The South Wales group is slowly working it's way around the 55 mile Epynt Way. The Ministry of Defence bought up more than 30,000 acres of land on the Epynt, near Sennybridge in 1940. This meant that the public was banned from large areas for safety reasons for over sixty years. Mynydd Epynt is a wild plateau covered largely in blanket bog and grass. The name Epynt originates from an expression meaning 'crossed by horse-path'.
Mae grŵp de Cymru, o dan arweiniad Austin, wedi cychwyn ar gwblhau crwydro 55 milltir o Lwybr Epynt. Prynwyd y tir uchel wyllt gan Y Weinyddiaeth Amddiffyn ym 1940 a gwaharddwyd mynediad cyhoeddus i’r ardal er mwyn diogelwch. Agorwyd y llwybr o amgylch Ardal Hyfforddi Pontsenni yn 2003 i roi mynediad i’r ardal mewn ffordd nad yw’n ymyrryd ag hyfforddiant milwrol. Mae’r llwybr yn cynnwys rhostiroedd agored, caeau amaethyddol, glannau afonydd a choetiroedd. Cyfeirir yr enw Epynt at lwybr porthmyn hynafol.
